** The very idea that Burt Gummer, the same badass CrazySurvivalist and monster hunter since the very beginning [[spoiler: was on the verge of dying via Graboid parasite is very sad in and of itself. Not helped by many instances that could’ve been the end for him. Thankfully he didn’t by the end of the film, but the idea still saddening]].

* HarsherInHindsight: There are lots of comments about [[spoiler:Burt's mortality, with Travis encouraging him to think of his legacy for after he's gone and bemusedly commenting about how Burt never dies when he survives being poisoned. Then, in ''Film/Tremors7ShriekerIsland, Burt has to make a HeroicSacrifice, making those comments lose most of their mirth.]]

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: We meet yet another species of Graboid from the ones we're used to...and they look identical to the African counterparts. This is made even worse by the fact that every previous film introduced some new Graboid form or type.

This is made even worse by the fact that every previous film introduced some new Graboid form or type. This was apparently due to a computer problem causing them to lose the original intended model for the Arctic Graboid.

Added DiffLines:

* FranchiseOriginalSin: The movie has been criticized for incorporating too many shout outs and references to the first movie, right down to one of the main characters being [[spoiler:the daughter of Val and Rhonda]] and lines being re-quoted even when they don’t fit the tone the scene is going for. This criticism was also apparent in ''Film/Tremors5Bloodlines''. It was accepted there as it was the first Tremors movie in 11 years, plus it was the 25th anniversary of the movie in question, so it was justifiable they’d call back to that film. In this film it felt more distracting since some of these elements felt shoehorned in as a way to [[PanderingToTheBase please the fans]].

** TheReveal that Perfection's entire population has abandoned the town, leaving just Burt and Travis lingering on in Chang's store like a couple of ghosts. It was never a big town, but it had a diverse cast of entertainingly crazy kooks who loved their little slice of nowhere because of the freedom it gave them to be themselves. And now everybody has been forced to bend the knee to harsh reality and move away. Burt and Travis are literally the last remnants of Perfection.
