The discovery of graboids having resulted in widespread fame, humble Bassett (Fred Ward) spurns recognition, while attempting to raise ostriches far off the beaten track, independent and somewhat grouchy, overwhelming laidback pride.
When the new guy suddenly arrives (Chris Gartin) with a thrilling lucrative opportunity, to depart for the Mexican desert, and hunt the subterranean beasts once again.
Initially, the surprising proposal is greeted with adamant repudiation, the safe yet shallow life preferred with correspondent cheeky earnest.
But the reward can't be overlooked without wide-eyed resplendent reckoning, and soon they're off to tempt devastation, to face primordial fears head-on.
As the situation becomes more daunting an old school chum is rapidly contacted, whose bizarro brazen imagination seeks frenetic frenzied fortunes (Michael Gross as Burt Gummer).
But the tactical advantage he swiftly provides bafflingly basks in bitter outrage, genetically prone to mutated dispute, hermaphroditically husked and hallowed.
And as the oldest form of life on Earth larger than a pesky 'lil amoeba, immediately adapts with collective fury, Mr. Bassett's manifest terrified wonder, must quickly improvise once again.
In a mad salute to reckless endangerment, Tremors 2: Aftershocks audaciously delineates, conjuring with airtight quasi-evolutionary bravado, it bears little else in mind than piecemeal tuckered tarnish.
Sort of like a video game where one must outwit ravenous beasts to gain a prize, a new level emerging vehemently posthaste after the opening gambit loses steam.
Considering the total lack of pretension the awkward lighthearted comedic exhaust, it's difficult to apply strict criteria to its evaluation, especially as the legendary Fred Ward takes centre stage, and embraces incumbent meta-criticism with ardent daring.
But had lifeforms such as these indeed been found, I would have recommended a moratorium on oil & gas development in the region, in order to study them more closely, and find sustainable ways to amicably co-exist.
Local First Nation legends would have also been sought to explain the ancient phenomenon, which somehow managed to escape effective note, as people spread far and wide across the globe.
It certainly would not have been time to open fire and pave the way for resource exploitation.
Scientific study and methodological recourse.
Taxonomic treatise.
Protozoa prone.
