You can count me among the fans who have been having a whole lot of fun with the recent direct-to-video Tremors sequels, largely thanks to how entertaining Michael Gross continues to be as Graboid hunter Burt Gummer. And while it’s a bummer that the Kevin Bacon-led series never got off the ground, I’m just glad that the Gross-led one is still staying alive.
As we’ve recently reported, Gross will reprise the role of Burt Gummer in Tremors 7, and the actor confirmed on Facebook this week that the film will begin shooting in November!
Gross wrote on his Facebook page, “Thirty years ago, I was on location for the original Tremors film and, in a month’s time, will be in Thailand to begin filming Tremors 7. Three decades, and I am grateful to the many Official Tremors Franchise Fans for the fun ride.”
In the reportedly-titled Tremors: Island Fury:
“The deadly Graboids are back, illegally brought in to a new island resort by a rich playboy looking for a trophy hunt.”
Brian Brightly wrote the screenplay with Universal Home Entertainment regular Don Michael Paul returning to direct. He previously got behind the camera for Tremors 5: Bloodlines and last year’s Tremors: A Cold Day in Hell, as well as several other Universal home video titles.
