SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Dreadfully Boring

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

The law of diminishing returns is called into play yet again for this second sequel to monster classic TREMORS. Unsurprisingly, TREMORS 3 was a straight-to-video release and it's a far cry from the excellence of the first film. It's not even as good as the second movie in the series, and really the only thing that keeps it watchable is the fact that many cast members return from the original. Not the big names, but actors and actresses like Michael Gross, Charlotte Stewart, Tony Genaro, Robert Jayne, and a grown-up Ariana Richards, who has developed into an appealing young woman.Sadly the plot is as dry and devoid of inspiration as the film's desert setting. The emphasis is, inevitably, on a new species of monster. The first film had underground worms, the second walking monsters, in this film there are flying beasts (nicknamed, somewhat inanely, "ass blasters"). The CGI effects used to animate the critters are absolutely appalling, some of the worst I've seen – really bottom of the barrel stuff, and I'm usually charitable when it comes to such shortcomings. The plot shifts uneasily from one lifeless action set piece to another, with only a few genuinely good moments in between.Trooper Michael Gross is good value for money and much of the entertainment generated by the on screen antics derive from his character. The bit where he gets swallowed is well achieved, for instance. But the last half hour of the film seems to take place in some disused rubbish tip (an apt setting, considering the nature of the movie) and the lack of budget is extremely apparent. The film seems aimed more at kids than its predecessors, and indeed was produced to garner interest in a short-lived TREMORS television series. The new actors – Christian, Chuang – are terrible and there's no sense of fear or terror as in the first flick, just laboured humour. Give TREMORS 3: BACK TO PERFECTION a miss – it's barely worth your time.

The third movie in the Tremors series of films is adequate entertainment for the fans. Michael Gross returns as Burt, who in turn returns to Perfection to find it a tourist haven of Graboid fans. Into the mix is a nefarious real estate deal that threatens the very existence of the townsfolk. But of course, the Graboids and their mutated offspring don't care about such things.If not expecting too much then this serves up some good straight to video fun. The formula remains the same, with Burt the paranoid saviour of Perfection getting some good lines, while the return of characters from the first film is a splendid bonus for the fans. There's some snarky asides to the perils/cheats of tourist traps, and the real estate rape of the land angle is driven home without over kill. Safe if undemanding creature feature fare. 6/10

Michael Gross is back as Burt Gummer(the only returning cast member) who returns to his hometown of Perfection Nevada(from the first film) after more "graboids" surface, only this time, they undergo a further metamorphosis enabling them to fly! Burt is now a seasoned monster hunter, and leads a new group of people in the perpetual battle against this threat.Third film doesn't have the charm of the first two, despite Michael Gross's good performance, he is the only memorable thing about it, further hampered by silly and crude humor resulting from the new type of "graboids" that have evolved. Story has nowhere left to go, unfortunately, though there would be a prequel...

Tremors I and II are great movies to watch. I was kinda on the negative view when I heard about a 3rd movie, thinking it wouldn't be great. But when I rented the movie at Blockbuster (to give it a chance), I was amazed for what I saw.The acting was great, especially since they brought back some of the original actors/actresses from the first one. The monster effects, well to be fair they were good, the CGi could have been better though. I'm not saying it's the worst CGi effects I've ever seen. At least we do get the original puppets and animatronics.I don't want to give too much away, just see it for yourself.8/10
