There was no tension when Paul and Jessica were fleeing across the sand from the worm
Yep, there were better scenes in Tremors
Ha! I actually thought the same thing as I was writing my post, but decided not to include it. The Tremors worms are much scarier.

Ha! I actually thought the same thing as I was writing my post, but decided not to include it. The *Tremors* worms are much scarier.
I guess I took from the book that the worms represented something eternal and mythological, like they were as much a part of Arrakis as the sun and the sand.
But as a foreigner to the planet it probably should have elicited a bit more: "WTF is that thing?"
Some of these scenes are just like how I remember from the book, but I'm not sure they were described in the same way that someone would write a script for a modern audience.
Like the book was written in 1965, so back then just being on another planet was "drama enough" for a good story
