Anyone looking forward to the Toolbox Murders as much as I am? I know remakes ususally suck but this one is supposed to have a whole new storyline while keeping in check with the original. Dont know how theyre gonna do that but I look forward to seeing them try. It comes out this tuesday and is a whopping 26 bucks to buy so I say rent it first to make sure a that its a quality movie.

This is a great movie Tobe Hooper did a real good job. One of the better slashers I've seen in awhile. I enjoyed it but I've never seen the original.

I dont think the 2004 Dawn of the Dead was all that different than the original. It just had better effects and a few new characters. This Toolbox Murders supposedly has a whole different storyline than the 70s grindhouse version. Its gonna be bloody I guarantee that, especially with Tobe Hooper calling the shots.

It's totally different from the original from what I've heard. It's weird this is only just comming out over there it's been out here now for about a year and a half. New Zealand is usually the last place to get shit like this.

You should def. check it out, it's def. a classic piece of video nastiness, just don't expect the same thing you saw in the remake...
The story is a little more believable than the remake also, plus it's a lot more gorrier.
About the only similarities you will see is a guy in a ski mask and he kills with tools, and it happens at an apartment complex.
Other than that, a lot different, but both are good, I do prefer the original a little more, but I def. liked the remake also.

If I ever get a chance I'll watch it. :)
tool box murders eh?
i found this, a good piece of work, (obviously not mine) but roughly based on the film. it kicks ass
Tool Box Murderer
Sitting in a dark room all alone
He listens to the sounds of violent hate rock
Over his face, covered with a ski mask
Out to the garage digging through his toolbox
Searching for a tool to commit hate murder
Making the headlines with another racial death
Tool Box Murders, Weapons to cut non white flesh
He cleans his hands after mutilating a queer
The body is stabbed until looking like ground beef
He throws the remains in the shed to add to his collection
Mental instability pushed by racial hatred
Claw hammer, hacksaw, chainsaw, monkey wrench
Instruments of cruel exterminations
Roaming through the park late at night
He finds a racially mixed couple
As they fuck on the park bench
He gets a knife from the toolbox
He stabs the nigger in the eye
Grabs the white bitch and bites her throat
Tool Box Murders, Weapons to cut non white flesh

Toolbox Remake was average at best and sadly its quite clear that we are still waiting for Tobe Hooper to hit form again though its been two decades since his last really good film and its becoming increasingly doubtful if he will ever regain his lost touch at all. How sad that he, John Carpenter and Brian De Palma have lost their touch so horribly as they were the architects of some of the finest moments of horror during the 70's and early 80's.

Just seen it as it has took a long time to be released in the UK and then it has gone straight to video.Did it flop in the US or something being as it did not appear at UK cinemas?
Anyway after a promising first 10 minutes I thought the film lost it's impact and became rather dull.Then the final half hour became a real tour de force but unfortunately the ending was a bit of a whimper after such a great build up.Plus the way it has been left open for a sequel is just pure Halloween 1 and 2 rip off.
Also I think the title should have been totally different as it is not relevant at all.Most of the killing is done with tools that would not fit in a tool box,it is not a remake of the 1970's movie and basically the story deserves a better title, something to associate with the supernatural element of the slasher and the apartment block.
All in all not the classic Tobe Hooper movie that I had been led to believe by various sources but worth seeing.:cool:
