#Burt Gummer Announces Presidential Run Ahead of Tremors: Shrieker Island Release
“#Burt Gummer Announces Presidential Run Ahead of Tremors: Shrieker Island Release”
Burt Gummer is an important piece of the Tremors franchise. He was not the main character in the first installment, as Kevin Bacon’s Valentine McKee was. However, that has changed over the years as Michael Gross continues to keep the franchise alive and well. Tremors: Shrieker Island takes place in a nature preserve in the Solomon Islands, which has been infiltrated by Graboids, Ass Blasters, and Shriekers. Two of the preserve’s top scientists recruit Burt Gummer (Michael Gross), monster hunter extraordinaire, to eradicate the infestation. While there, Burt picks up a potential new protégé and encounters lost love.
Michael Gross still enjoys playing Burt Gummer after all of these years. “For over four decades, what I do for a living is pretend. Is there a part of me that exists from which I borrow Burt? Yes, there’s a part of me, a certain obsessive compulsiveness about little things,” said Gross in an interview last year. “I’m a compulsive recycler, and stuff like this; I have a little OCD in me. Burt is comically obsessive compulsive. Burt goes to the extremes. I’ve taken a little bit of who I am for Burt Gummer; I have my bizarre parts.” It sounds like there’s plenty of Gross in Gummer and vice versa.
Michael Gross went on to say, “What you do is you take these little things that you know about yourself and take them to extremes. But I feel entirely comfortable playing Burt, just because he’s comic gold.” Tremors fans all know that Burt Gummer is the comedic gold, but would he make a good president? “Comedy is about imbalance, people who are out of balance. Literally, when they lose their balance and fall on a banana peel, but also out of balance just personally and psychologically. Burt is nothing if not out of balance, and that’s what I love about him,” said Gross.
Tremors: Shrieker Island will be available to stream and purchase on October 20th. In addition to Michael Gross, the cast also includes Richard Brake, Jon Heder, Caroline Langrishe, Jackie Cruz, Cassie Clare, Sahajak Boonthanakit, Matthew Douglas, Randy Kalsi, Bear Williams, David Assavanon, Boonma Lamphon, Aukrawut Rojaunawat, Owen Macrae, Iris Park, and Mikey Black.
