What sets it apart
May contain story progression spoilers
The sequel moves the Graboid survival formula from desert communities to Nunavut snowfields and an isolated research station.
Burt Gummer is dying from Graboid poison, making the creature attacks inseparable from his urgent need for treatment.
Burt must work alongside his son Travis while confronting both Graboids and his own declining condition.
The plot depends on a new batch of Graboids and recurring franchise rules surrounding the giant underground worms.
