Tremors 5: Bloodlines

Trivia: Michael Gross is the only actor to appear in every "Tremors" project thus far, appearing in all five films (and he is scheduled to appear in the upcoming sixth film as well), in addition to the short-lived Sci-Fi Channel TV-show.

Trivia: The first film in the series without any direct involvement from creators Brent Maddock and S.S. Wilson. While the film is very loosely based on a story-treatment written by the two back in 2004, the finished film only takes some very basic and minor cues from their draft, and as a result, they were not credited. The two backed away from the project early on, when they found out they were not going to have complete creative control.

Trivia: Although the series creators were not involved in the film, the lead screenwriter John Whelpley has some history with the series - he was also the lead screenwriter for "Tremors 3: Back to Perfection."

Character mistake: In his opening prologue, Burt says the Graboids have been contained to the Northern Hemisphere, showing a map highlighting the Graboid attacks of the first film in Nevada and the second film in Mexico. However, it overlooks the Graboid/Shrieker attack in Argentina, in the Southern hemisphere, shown at the beginning of Tremors 3, an incursion Burt personally put down. It's not like it was classified - characters in that movie talk about it being reported by CNN, and characters in the Tremors TV series talk about it as well. And it's not like Tremors 3 is no longer canon, since Burt makes two references to being swallowed by the Graboid in that movie (which also becomes a plot point in Tremors 6).
