Leatherface: TCM 2

[LegionFilms]

Now I'm a huge fan of Texas Chainsaw Massacre, seen it too many times to count. I also saw the newest "retelling" in theaters like 3 times. But my question is if anyone has seen the second one. I'm not even interested in the other 2 sequals just the second. Becuase I saw the trailers for all of them and the second one was the only one that didnt look completely shitty. And I have heard some people give the impression that it isn't all that bad. After all, even if he was obligated, Tobe Hooper directed it.

I cant say that I think this sequel is as good as the original but then again what sequel is?? There are good parts to the film and parts that I could do without. I had a little trouble w/Dennis Hoppers character, something about him just put him out of place for me. The brother makes the movie humorous in a way. Since you havent seen it I dont want to give away 2 much. It is good for a rental, would I buy it? Yes cos' its TCM but I felt that Leatherface the 3 film was better some will disagree just my opinion.

All I remember is that I liked it better than 4, but that is because I'd rather watch almost anything before watching 4.

part 3 is good....actually, not to be critical or anything, but part 3 was entitled 'Leatherface'.

.....bows head in embarrassment..

Part two was a total waste for me. It was too funny. Dennis Hopper's character was way over the top, and I totally didn't enjoy it. IMHO

Choptop is reason enough to buy part 2. Leatherface is a kind of a joke in this film, but it's still worth buying just for Choptop. Also, Savini did the effects so there's reason number 2.

Leatherface: Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3 is also good IMO. I think it had a great ensemble cast.

TCM 4 was the embarrasment i think oh my god, why was the film even waisted to make that piece of crap? Anyway, i hope they re-make 2 as well, the first movie ended as they kind of dont have a choice do they? If they do i hope they can get Dennis to reprise his role because i dont think that anyone else can do Lefty like Dennis can, i just cant imagine anyone else doing the part personally.

Anyhow, 2 is the best IMO, it seemed that Tobe after his imense sucess with 1 he had more money & resorces than in the first & it shows in the set design & the makeup of the characters. There's also more action than in the first & the chase scenes are better with better lighting. I there is a drawback to this movie, it would have to be the end fanalle where the 'big showdown' takes place. I know that i'm going to be giving the whole movie away if i say any more, so i will let you watch it for yourself... unless you write back telling me that you dont mind spoliers :D.

It sounds crazy, but I know quite a few people who feel this way. Personally, I think they are equals simply b/c I'm such a huge fan of the Choptop character and the opening bridge sequence.

Yea that sounds way to bizzare to me, but based on you guys im gonna get the second one soon.

Well, I hope you enjoy it. Tell us your thoughts of it too. I also recommend you at least rent the third one. Stay away from 4 though...stay far away.

BTW, Part 2 is at Bestbuy for 10 bucks.

[LegionFilms]

Nice, Bestbuy has a lot of movies that are cheap for some reason, I got Boondock saints there for 10. And another thing, I see a hell of a lot of TCM2 DVD everywhere. Its almost comon to see.
