I am a big fan of the Tremors films, particularly 1 & 2. I had hoped for a long time that they would continue to make a Tremors 5, but when they did I was very disappointed that it fit more into the current CGI creature feature mould that is so prevalent at the moment.
The creatures themselves are not a patch on those featured in the previous films. The design of them changed almost entirely and they are far too complex.
The film lacked the wit and imagination of the previous films. For me the only part which felt like a real Tremors moment was when Burt was being dragged along in a cage by his new partner in monster hunting.
Half the script was ripped out of the first 2 films.
Tremors 5 felt like a film made by fans of the franchise, who couldn't bring anything new, funny, scary or inventive to the table. The good thing about it was it made me want to watch Tremors 1, 2, 3 and 4 back to back and I appreciated them all the more.
