Totally mind-boggling to me, that tremor last night.
Sorry to highjack your post, but am I alone in 'Tremors' being my favourite
all time film?
First earthquake I noticed was the Lleyn Peninsula one back in 1984. The
building I was in (had got in to work very early) was a concrete 1950s
thing in Fleetwood. When trolleys were pushed up and down the corridors
the whole building sounded (and to a very minor extent, felt) like an
earthquake. Funnily enough, the earthquake sounded and felt like a
trolley... but a very big one. :-)
I saw it many years ago knowing absolutely nothing of it beforehand.
Brilliant. (Not so sure I would wish to view it again - case of right
film, right time.)
Damn sight better than Dune. Which should have been sunk in Waterworld.
