Huh ... I just read about Michael Gross on Wikipedia. It turns out that Mary Gross from Saturday Night Live is his sister.


You're right - Kevin Bacon and Fred Ward played the funny "heros" who nearly blew themselves up when trying to stop the worms. Michael Gross and Reba McIntyre were the survivalist couple who evacuated with the rest of the group who hid out on the rocks.

IIRC the movie was actually a parody of other sci-fi flicks and it was darn funny.
