Texas Chainsaw Franchise
I have only seen the original film, the remake, and the sequel to the remake (Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning). I was wondering how good this series was, especially the ones I have not seen (you can comment on the ones I have seen if you want). I was actually thinking of buying Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation. If there is another one that you think would be better, you may suggest it. So, what are your thoughts?

I haven't seen TNG yet, but I would reccommend Part II. Dennis Hopper is a total nutcase, and I loved it! Bill Mosely's performance as Chop Top is also pretty awesome. If you can find the two disc edition pick that one up. Leatherface: TCM III, I wasn't impressed with. I haven't seen it in a long time though. The trailer for it was pretty funny though.

They are all worth a watch with the exception of The Next Generation which was just a mess. Part 2 is one of my all time favorite films... more darkly funny than the original which may or may not be your thing. The remake is one of the better ones out there and I enjoyed it.
Texas Chainsaw 3D isn't great either but if you switch off to all the plot-holes and continuity errors it has it's moments. |

On the subject of the remake, I didn't care for it much at all. However it's been a long time since I've seen it and I only saw it once. I haven't seen "The Begining" either. I was debating whether or not to watch that last night, but instead watched "Human Centipede II". ...I should have watched "The Begining"... I'll pass on TCM 3D... |

I agree that they are all worth watching - at least once.
Part 1 - classic, love it Part 2 - pretty good but have gotten bored of it over the years Part 3 - liked that one better than 2 Part 4 - underated - well acted Remake - yuck - waste of space Prequel - pretty good - nice and gory newest - was different so I enjoyed it - surprisingly

Also, the film definitely retained a comedic element similar to the (superior) sequel Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2. For example, the fast food restaurant scene

Having rewatched the remake a couple times, I don't mind it as much. It's like the Dawn of the Dead remake, just a completely different movie, and not too bad in its own right. I haven't rewatched the prequel yet. |
