Natali To Direct Tremors Reboot

Those Tremors sequels have been pretty fucking awful.  The recent ones at least.  However last year Kevin Bacon revealed his interest in returning to the series and making it a bit more respectful.

The new one will be a TV series.

According to Deadline, Vincenzo Natali (Hannibal) has been tapped to direct the Syfy pilot, a reboot of the 1990 cult classic film, with original star Kevin Bacon reprising his role. The project hails from Jason Blum’s Blumhouse TV and Universal Cable Prods.

In the new series, Valentine (Bacon) returns to the original town after the Graboids begin terrorizing it again.  But this time Valentine is also a wino who is battling a massively deluded ego.  Now word on Fred Ward, they’d be remiss to exclude him.

This isn’t the first attempt at a TV series for this show.
