* BaseBreakingCharacter: Travis Welker, Burt’s tag along partner is quite divisive amongst fans. Some saw him as one of the most annoying characters in the series after [[Film/Tremors2Aftershocks Grady]] with cringe inducing one liners that disrupt the tone of the film and an overall obnoxious attitude. Other thought he was a great [[RedOniBlueOni opposite to Burt’s more short tempered and serious minded personality]] who not only lightened the mood but also proved he could fight back against the Graboids. The reveal [[spoiler:that he’s Burt’s son]] only added more fuel to the fire.

* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: Opinions on the new creature designs aside, one thing fans have agreed on is that the CGI effects are incredible given it’s a direct to video film, as well as [[SpecialEffectsFailure the series track record of less than stellar CG work in the past]].

* CrowningMomentOfAwesome: Burt's first African Assblaster kill. He picks up a victim's weapon and throws it straight into it's head, killing it instantly. The local who'd been berating him the entire time promptly compares him to Rambo.

* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: Many consider the design of the African graboids and ass blasters to be inferior to the original. The ass blasters neither resemble the original design nor their original graboid forms and come off as some kind of different monster entirely. The graboid, while the effects are impressive looking, look more or less like a generic giant underground worm.

** Burt is referred to as a MONSTER hunter, not a GRABOID hunter, why? [[Series/{{Tremors}} he's had to deal with the Mixmaster mutations]] as well.

* FridgeLogic: An unfortunate case with the African tribal dance honoring the Graboids and Assblasters. See, the dance involves a lot of drumming and synchronized, rhythmic stamping on the ground... which, as you should know by this point, is ''guaranteed'' to draw in every hungry Graboid for miles around. And the African Graboid is capable of boring through rock, so there's no such thing as a "safe place". So, the fact such a dance exists makes absolutely '''no sense whatsoever'''; any tribe foolish enough to try and develop such traditions should have been wiped out by hungry Graboids!

** There have also been Graboids in Mexico and Argentina however, so it's possible that they're everywhere, since they would have been around when Pangaea was a thing.

** The African Graboids types having toothy maws instead of just mandibles like the American subspecies. Why? There's a lot more things in Africa capable of FIGHTING BACK than in the areas of the states they live in, so they need to have better killing power than their American counterparts.

* BrokenBase: Some liked the new idea of introducing a whole new species to the Graboid family, the implication being the animals we've been seeing so far are the prehistoric versions and the new African specimens are the modern species. Others greatly disliked it, especially the newly designed Assblaster barely resembling its older incarnation.
