History YMMV / Tremors3BackToPerfection

* VindicatedByHistory: At the time of its release fan reactions to Tremors 3 were fairly divisive, often criticized for its over usage of bad CGI and its twist in the Graboid life cycle and settings a bland retread of the first 2 movies, deeming it the weakest sequel of the franchise. With the release of the more hotly contentious [[Film/Tremors5Bloodlines fifth]] and [[Film/Tremors6AColdDayInHell sixth]] movies changing up the locations and not giving enough time in Perfection, reactions towards this film have gotten warmer over the years who enjoyed it as a solid entry overall, appreciating the return to the titular town and more lively interactions with the residents.

* SpecialEffectsFailure: Arguably the worst offender of the series. While the practical effects are still used, [[SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome and are as good]] [[Film/Tremors2Aftershocks as its predecessor]], this was also the first film to fully utilize CGI for all the creatures. To say it’s on par with early [=PlayStation 2=] graphics is being very, ''very'' kind.

* SignatureScene: The reveal of the Ass-Blaster, the latest evolution in the Graboid life cycle.

-->'''Miguel and Nancy''': "C’mon Burt. What’s it been, 11 years?"

* HilariousInHindsight: Miguel and Nancy’s line about Burt being overly paranoid about the Graboids return for 11 years becomes this when it took 11 years for a [[Film/Tremors5Bloodlines 5th movie]] to get made.

** The moment where Burt gets eaten by a Graboid would later be followed up humorously in [[Film/Tremors5Bloodlines the fifth film]] where [[spoiler: a helicopter pilot got eaten and too survived]], but come [[Film/Tremors6AColdDayInHell Tremors 6]] and its revealed [[spoiler: that Burt is dying due to Graboid venom entering his body after being eaten]].

** Val’s comment about whether a Graboid could fly as the last one falls off a cliff became less funny after this film established the Ass-Blasters, essentially flying Shriekers. Meaning that yes, Val, they ''can'' fly after all.
