As the title implies, Tremors 3 brings us back from Mexico into the small Nevada town of Perfection. Burt Gummer has returned home after a Shrieker(the name now given to the two legged land walking creatures spawned from Graboids)extermination in South America. It doesn't take long however for the Graboids to set their sights on Perfection again after an 11 year absence. All of the minor characters who survived in the very first film are back along with newcomers, Jodi Chang(the daughter of the ill fated store owner Walter Chang, who now runs the store), and a buffoon named Jack who does Graboid "safaris" for tourists. Burt teams up with Jack and Jodi to eliminate the Graboids and Shriekers, but now find themselves facing a new group of monsters dubbed "Ass Blasters". These creatures are apparently what happens when Shriekers reach full maturity, and they complete the life cycle by laying eggs on the backs of Graboids. They look like skinny, winged Shriekers and propel themselves through the air by flammable gas emissions from their butts. Most of the film is spent with Burt, Jack and Jodi running around through the desert playing cat and mouse with these creatures.
This is my least favorite of the four Tremors films. By the time you reach a Part 3 of a movie series, you always run the risk of repeating yourself to a lesser degree. Tremors 3 really does have a been-there-done-that vibe going on. Aside from the new monsters, it really doesn't bring anything new to the table. Even the new monsters are unimpressive since they're CGI, and a rather bad CGI if I may add. Even some of the Graboids are CGI this time, and that's no good. The running around in the desert with the Ass Blasters seems rather long and tedious.
On the positive side though, The Tremors formula still does work from time to time(it was directed by the second half of the original writing team, Brent Maddock, but strangely neither him or Steve Wilson wrote this film). It's got it's funny and clever moments(one good moment has Jack convincing his group of tourists that they are under a Graboid attack. Once the group has made it to the safety of a large rock, Jack scares them into thinking they might be stranded there for days and uses this opportunity to try to sell beverages to them), and it's nice to see the old townspeople again. Michael Gross is still fun to watch too. This movie is rated PG, but I'm not sure how it got by with that rating considering it has pretty much the same amount of gore and profanity as the other films. Oh, well.
Though I wouldn't highly recommend this movie, it isn't without it's entertainment value and it certainly a step above a lot of direct to video films in the horror genre.

Well, nobody could have expected the very first movie with its giant, burrowing worms to be as good as it was. And we certainly didn't have any right to expect that the sequel to that film would be nearly as clever and entertaining. With this third installment, the "Tremors" series finally ran out of gas. Burt Gummer (Michael Gross) was excellent comic relief, but he's too much of a characature to command leading man status. The tired script doesn't require the characters to think their way out of their dilemma the way the previous two movies did. A scene in which Burt survives being swallowed is particularly ridiculous, as is the latest matamorphosis of the graboids.

Ok..Ok.. I have to admit I didn't think they could really pull off anything with a third entry......I was wrong! This is not as good as the original or the second film, but what movie sequels are? The FX are not as good in the film with CGI "Graboids" and "Shriekers", but I give them credit for having a new mutation "A S S Blasters"! This is a very funny addition to the franchise and well worth viewing for a fan of the series. I rate it 3 1/4 stars. The DVD is a very good transfer too!

If you are looking for a complicated, deeply moving movie, this is not what you want. This is strictly a film for light entertainment purposes only. I personally love the entire Tremors series. Tremors 3 takes you back to Perfection to find yet another form of Graboids causing problems for the residence of this tiny town. There is a new store owner,
a guide service and what would Perfection be without Burt Gummer?
It's fun, it's light and it's entertaining. It's a nice break from some of the other "heavier" films.

While the very first in the series offered a dry satire on B-Movies, the third in Stampede's franchise continues the preposterious comedy of the second. Survivalist Burt Gummer is back in Perfection Valley, where a host of new Graboids have shown up ready to eat its way through the town inhabitants.
Joined by newcomer Graboid enthusiast Desert Jack and entrepeneur Jodi Chang, it's up to Burt to put the Graboids back in place. It wouldn't be Tremors, however, if there wasn't a suprise or two, and without giving too much away: there's a third evolution which has to be seen to be believed!!
It funny, well-paced and fans of the series will relish in the chance to rejoin some old characters and smirk with knowning glee as Burt whittles off his infamous quips!
Look out for the fourth film soon, and a Sci-Fi channel TV series from January 2003. I for one can't wait!
