I wasn't looking for a message in it, I had heard from a friend that I had to see it and that it was drastically different from the first... total popcorn film. So me and a friend sat down and watched it. I immediately fell in love with "Chop Top" and Grandpa but Dennis Hopper brought it over the edge for me. The lunacy, from the first car chase to the final showdown was fantastic and a lot of fun to watch. I guess I wasn't really searching for a better understanding of a serial killer's family dynamic or a message delivered about society through a dual chainsaw wielding cop and perhaps that's why I liked it so much. Some people enjoy sifting through layers of subtlety in film and trying to get into the head of the creators, to an extent I do too, but sometimes I'm just looking for a good time.
