Texas Chainsaw Massacre - The Beginning

[Highly rated reviewer]

Awesome

I've never really invested my time in this cult movie until recently. I rented the remake and it had the same impact Saw did the first time i watched it. It takes films like the recent Wolf Creek to it's limits. I've been to see TCM: The Beginning last night at the cinema in the dead of night and that chainsaw sounds so loud it's awesome. This film goes a long way to explain how it started, and i was hooked from start to finish, even if i was cringing at the gore on screen. I won't give the plot away although generally the theme to film is already established. It certainly helped me point the finger to who provoked the massacre. A great film! Go watch, if you can hack it :-)

Same Film, New Cast...?

I enjoyed the first film, the remake was a nice modern touch. This film is just terrible... What exactly are the differences between this and the last one they made? Oh they show 5mins of the past... Yup, really worthwhile. Badly made, poorly shot, weak story. Extremely boring, everyone runs to the same place, hides in the same places, always one left behind that you cheer for to save the others apart from by now your so bored your cheering for our chainsaw friend. Atleast when there all dead the film must be finishing soon. Avoid, or regret it. Although i must say some of the acting was terrific... just a real shame the talent was put to waste.
