In the end, Tremors was a horror franchise...and Burt was the killer.

Even if the tremors move to space Burt will still fight em off.

What do you mean "bad ones"? :o

[@goldenlink40]

​@legbreaker2762 anything beyond tremors 4 was the dip from the practical effects with minor CGI to just full blown CGI. Some graboids were practically alien like. Also some of the later plot points felt very shoe horned without much of that redneck humor.

[@Shrinkkkk]

Burt was the best character in more ways than one. If they do a "oh he's still alive, even though we said he's dead.", I won't be mad because it's well up Burt's alley to survive being eaten, thrown off a cliff and exploded.

[@em5345-]

Probably the most Burt thing he'll ever do

[@SoulFoxie]

I mean he was "eaten" before so technically yeah it wouldn't be surprising

[@fallenepoch5305]

It would be the most Burt thing for him to do like maybe he found a particularly armored part of the graboid and just held on for dear life after the explosion

@@axelnilsson5124 do not. Do not get my hopes up. I know the series is dumb and campy but I absolutely love the hammed up performances of Michael Gross. Tremors was my favorite film growing up, like Burt was the man to 6 year old me.

Tremors definitely would have been a series that fell apart fast if Burt Gummer wasn’t there to make it enjoyable. We salute you, Burt!

[@kyze8284]

It makes me laugh to look back and think “Kevin Bacon and Fred Ward made the movies” and then Bacon didn’t come back… then Ward didn’t come back “Mr. Goober” (that was his real life sister by the way just messing with him which was why he had that reaction) seriously held both series together but I want to see the episodes they DID make with Bacon but never released
