After spending all the reward money from his first encounter with Graboids, Earl Bassett agrees to hunt more of the deadly creatures at a Mexican oil refinery for $50,000 each. Knowing that he cannot face the monsters alone, Earl recruits Burt Gummer, another veteran of the incident in Nevada, to supply the firepower. There is only one problem: the Graboids have now evolved into creatures able to attack above ground.
Reviews for the film were mostly positive, with some critics labeling it one of the best direct-to-video sequels ever made.[2]
The film is the second in the Tremors franchise. It was followed by a 2001 sequel, Tremors 3: Back to Perfection.
