The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

Good movie!

It's a Netflix original. Need I say more? You only need to decide whether you have two hours to waste and never get back while knowing full well how bad Netflix is at making movies. The decision is up to you. I'm certainly regretting mine.

Why was this ever thought of, let alone made? It's supposed to do away with part 2 & is set 48 years since the 1974 original film, but they completely messed up!! Leatherface would be in his 70's!! Can a 70 plus year old, chunky man who is completely out of shape move & kill like this, NO!! All this is is riding the coattails of what was & Netflix trying to get more subscribers!!! This is a hard pass!!

This was ridiculous, painful and stupid. The acting was horrible. The characters were worse. The plot was dumb. All the stupid stuff from the Tesla to the smart phones to the flag to the party on the bus was absolutely absurd. Adding the whole thing about the school shooting was an injustice to anyone who was a victim of a school shooting. The whole film seems to have been made for people who only use social media to communicate and who cannot carry a proper conversation if not being filmed, and cannot read a book.

Even in a 2022 movie every one is too dumb to make simple decisions. Let's trap ourselves in scenarios that will get ourselves killed by a 350lb half wit that runs faster than every fit person around Him!

Watched this last night, and it was a fun enough time. The story and characters are... ok. It's very bloody, gory and brutal and the characters are terribly and annoyingly stupid just for the purpose of driving the story along. Nothing new for a slasher, but it's very annoying. That said, it is very creepy and intriguing, and the cinematography is decent. I found myself hiding behind a pillow a lot, mostly because the kills were so brutal, but also because I was terrified at certain times. A good enough watch if you're a horror/TCM fan, but don't expect a great movie. Would never pay to watch it outside of a streaming service. Worth a watch if you.

Terrible storyline. Stupid script. Poor acting. Another generic garbage from Netflix. Nothing close to the thriller of the original one. Don't waste your time.
