Welcome to the Graboid hole of Tremors 5 Gummer Down Under:
When ‘Tremors’ co-creators Brent Maddock and S.S. Wilson were approached to develop a fifth entry in the popular franchise, they envisioned sending gun nut Burt Gummer to the land down under to throw another graboid on the barbie. But a combination of unfortunate events and mysterious studio forces saw them unceremoniously dumped from the franchise. Much like the lead characters in the series of films they helped bring to life, S.S. Wilson and Brent Maddock have often had to adapt to circumstances largely beyond their control. For starters, there was the case of the ever-decreasing returning cast.
>“Michael Gross (who played survivalist Burt Gummer in seven ‘Tremors’ films as well as the 13-episode TV series from the early naughties) would be the first one to say that the running joke was that he was the only one willing to show up,” Wilson said.
>“Kevin (Bacon, in case it wasn’t obvious, who played Val McKee in the first film) bowed out before ‘Tremors 2’, although he did consider it briefly. We flew out to New York and saw him. But at the time, he hated the movie. He hated it for about 20 years. At the time, he’d had some flops, and ‘Tremors’ wasn’t a breakout hit. He was incredible to work with, and when we went to see him, he was very polite. But he said, ‘Guys, you know what? People don’t come up to me (and say) ‘You’re so great in that movie.’, they just say ‘The monsters are so cool’. He was very, very pleasant to us, all the while saying ‘no’. Then Fred Ward (Bacon’s co-star) came back for the second film but didn’t want to do any more after that. So in ‘Tremors 3’, we knew it was only going to be Michael - and we knew that Burt needed sounding boards; he needed ‘real’ people who he can react to and who can react to him.

I mean in a lot of ways. Yes he’s a cheater and a liar who has the audacity to be angry at Megan for being disloyal to him (like what?!?) but he sometimes acts like a freaking sociopath.
He led Sarah on to the point of shopping for rings. Then when they leave and she’s happy and telling him she would love whatever he buys for her, he purposely picks a fight. All so he can spend the weekend with another girl. He knows he’s leaving Sarah, his WIFE, by herself feeling confused about what she did wrong and crying herself to sleep. And he truly doesn’t care because he’s off to take some other girl’s virginity who also trusts him completely.
I think I, a total stranger, felt more sympathy for Sarah than her own husband did. And that’s messed up.

... keep reading on reddit ➡Michael Gross is like an R rated Mr Rogers. He’s a treasure. All these years playing Burt Gummer in the Tremors series, and he just keeps giving it his all. shrieker island is a great example. It never tries to be more than it is. But Michael Gross doesn’t phone it in. That’s HIS OWN beard and everything and I bet he even got that tan on his own too. Anyway, all I’m saying is he’s getting on in years and it would be awesome if he could get some appreciation while he’s still alive, kicking, and making awesome B horror.
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.
