I watch this movie at least once a year. Loved this! Solid research and interesting facts galore. I'll be back for more!

I loved Tremors, one of the first ‘scary’ films my dad allowed me to stay up late and watch with him. I felt very grown up 😄.

In all my reading about monsters and cryptids I’d never come across the Olgoi-Khorkoi. I always used to think giant worms came from some of the old stories of dragon like creatures and Wyrms that lived in wells and caves.

I feel like everyone had a dad/uncle/cousin that introduced them to Tremors haha

i came across VESHNITSA SOROKA while researching my story "Hark the Heralds" .... I suspect you won't have heard it... would be a great edition for monster of the week perhaps...

I've seen "Tremors", a great movie, but I haven't heard of the Olgoi-Khorkoi until now. Great info!
