The copyright to the original Tremors screenplay is now back in the hands of its creators at Stampede Entertainment
In short, Stampede created Tremors, it’s three sequels and the 13 episode television series. They wrote a script for a fifth film, but Universal decided that it didn’t want any help from the creators.
Universal went ahead with its own ideas and created films 5, 6 & 7, which are frankly crap. Now Stampede has the rights back to the original film, they can make their own sequels with graboids and characters from that first story. They can’t use anyone, or creatures from the rest of the film series. That’s a bit of a shame as I really like the Shriekers from Tremors 2.
It might be. It’s hard to remember. Two characters are waiting on supplies somewhere and they see the headlights way off suddenly come complete stop. After a while they know something’s up and they go to investigate, and wind up finding the truck half destroyed, with the driver’s hands still gripping the wheel and the rest of his body devoured by the little zergling guys. I feel like you might get to see a flashback from the driver’s perspective too, but again, it’s been so many years.
(looked it up and this is the Pedro scene)
