Kevin Bacon and Fred Ward play two handymen in a remote desert town, who yearn to get out and into the big city, but it turns out they waited too long, as a mysterious underground monster appears, killing many townspeople and livestock, until our two reluctant heroes team up with Militarist couple Bert Gummer(Amusingly played by Michael Gross) and his wife, played by Reba McEntire. They formulate a plan with a visiting seismologist to defeat this monster(nicknamed a Graboid).
Fun movie is well made and exciting, with appealing characters and a breezy, self-aware tone that works very well. A whole lot of shaking going on!
