No in-between: you either love this movie, or you despise it. This post first ran in 2014. A while back I wondered why my favorite Godzilla flick—the 1998 version starring Matthew Broderick—never spawned a sequel. And for that matter, why did I even consider it a...

This was the fourth Tremors film, and at the time I first presented this post in 2014, the last one. Things have changed since then. When I saw that Michael Gross, who played whacko right-wing survivalist Burt Gummer in the first three Tremors films, also starred in...
