I think that the movie is worth your money to go see this movie any question you had about the remake were answered thoroughly

(potential spoilers ahead)





































The whole story about how leather face starts making masks and why he picks up the chainsaw and what started them on eating meat is fantastic. Also how the sheriff starts every thing with the family. At the end though i thought that sop was gonna be sheriff hoyt.



























(end spoilers)







although i did find some continuity errors in the movie

I have a very conflicted opinion on this

1 - This was the first movie I have ever considered walking out in the middle of. It was SO predictable, and pointless, and had no story or character development. It was just "look at what gorey shit we're gonna show you next!" There were more pointless characters than useful ones, and there were wah-ay-ay to many jump scares.

2 - The gore was amazingly perfect. I've never seen anything like it.

So half of me wants to buy it, and the other half wants to go back in time and not waste my money.

Did you really expect an amazing revelation in the horror genre to come from a prequel though? It did exactly what TCM only because it was playing off a series of movies there was really nothing THAT original it could have brought to the table. I don't know, I saw what I expected... a decent slasher, had some fun.

My wife and I both saw it, she looked away a time or two...I cannot understand all the negative reviews....I honestly thought this movie was well written, told a horrific story, flowed from beginning to end. People who say its a decent slasher flick must've been high, or really just didn't watch the movie. One said he almost left half way during the film...I just don't get that...I'm 34, seen alot of things, and alot of movies...this movie actually left me a little unnerved and feeling a little more vulnerable. The effects were top notch, the violence was very hard hitting and in your face...I thought the actors portrayed their situations very well...this is not better than the remake of the original, but its much more of a HORROR film...very disturbing picture...and really opens up a bit of history on the family. Someone said it was more of a history of "the sheriff"...not true...I am wondering if some of the critics here really saw the movie...and if they did, did they watch the movie. I highly recommend it for horror value, good effects, and being a well written and acted film...I do not recommend this film to anyone who has nightmares after movies :) this one will give you plenty.

no story?

texas chainsaw massacre has always been the same, captured by the crazies at a ranch house....what more is there going to be?

and yeah there was more of a story, it gave some meaning behind the story of the remake...so I do not know what you are talking about there


and there is some character development, so I disagree with you there to

I have seen this movie twice. I went on opening night and I just got back from it again, I have some questions that leave me in the dark if anyone could help.
SPOILERS (MAYBE)

















My first question Happens in the opening scene when the mother is sitting there at the factory asking her boss if she could "Take a bathroom break" I think I may have the answer but i'm not sure, if i'm wrong please correct me. I take it that she was an alcoholic and she gave "Thomas" the disease and that is why his face is all fucked. I get this conclusion from her boss kneeling over her and saying "Thats what you get for drinking on the job." But who's the father ????? That is my question.
Second question why did only the biker chick go after them in the jeep for a Robbery and not her B/F ?
Another it's not really a question it's about the Biker (Beacher from "OZ") Don't you think a bad ass biker would go in shootin and asking questions later ?
I overall really liked the film I thought it had a decent story, nice character development (More realistic I think, except if I was the dark haired girl and I just watched my spouse get brutally dismembered like that right over top of me I wouldn't of went and tried to save my other friend I woulda got the fuck out of dodge. I'm sure everyone else probley would of too.) and the GORE oh man F'n SWEET!!!!

End Possible SPOILERS

Does anyone know the exact words of the Speach Sheriff Hoyt gave at the dinner table at the end ? Thanks
