Beneath Perfection

Christian Francis

Based on the original screenplay of ‘Tremors’ by SS Wilson, Brent Maddock and Ron Underwood.


In the desolate Nevada desert lies the tiny town of Perfection—population: 14. Life moves slowly in this forgotten speck on the map, until handyman duo Val McKee and Earl Bassett decide they’ve had enough of the dead-end town and hit the road. But before they can escape, they discover a grisly series of deaths—and something strange lurking underground.

As mysterious tremors shake the earth and people start disappearing, Val and Earl uncover the terrifying truth: giant, carnivorous worm-like creatures are tunneling beneath the surface, hunting anything that moves. Cut off from the outside world, the residents of Perfection must band together to outwit the relentless monsters, now dubbed “Graboids,” using only their wits, limited resources, and an unhealthy amount of dynamite.

Fast-paced, suspenseful, and darkly funny, Beneath Perfection brings new depth to the cult horror-comedy classic, delivering thrills and laughs while exploring the resilience of a community under siege—right beneath their feet.
