Tremors: Blast from the Past Review

The third episode Blast from the Past originally aired on April 11, 2003. What's fascinating about the first three episodes of this TV series is that each creature gets it's own special episode and it's even in the order that the first three movies are in. The best of the three episodes so far is this one...by far. The exact opposite of the movie that the ABs came from which is the worst thing in the series to date. It is amazing to see that the TV series is a direct continuation of the third movie. It almost makes the third movie worth seeing if you're going to watch the TV series as well. What this episode specifically got that no other entry in the series got so far was mourning a character's death. Nancy (who sold the AB to some magicians) blames herself for the death of someone who is never identified and wants to find out all she can about him. Granted, this doesn't go very far past two scenes, but it is a great change of pace for this series. This is the best the TV series has done so far and I'm actually excited to see what else is in store.
