See more Tim B. @SlimTim0707 Dec 29 This movie starts out with real steam and is delightfully bizarre, however the conclusion is about as interesting or scary as stale bread.

See more Jeepers C @RT12312147 Nov 8 This is one of the best, campy horror movies of all time. I loved everything about it from the wacky family to the over serious Dennis Hopper as the cop infiltrating the underground den of the cannibalistic family. It reminded of how much I enjoyed Return of the living dead. Both are great sequels. This movie is scary in parts and funny in other parts. See more Wayne K @RT88290232 Oct 19 The original Texas Chainsaw Massacre is one of my favourite films of all time, and an undisputed horror classic. To hear that the sequel went down the black comedy route is a bit jarring, but with the right script and approach it could have worked, sadly, this film has neither. It’s 5 minutes of jokes stretched to an hour and 40 minutes, replete with cartoonish antics, previously brutal and terrifying killers reduced to utter buffoons with no payoff, good actors embarrassing themselves and so much screaming. I get the film was trying to be some sort of parody of 80s slasher films, but it’s a bad parody, so overdone and ridiculous that it’s more of a parody of itself. The Sawyer family are horribly overindulged this time, especially the father, who dominates the screen with his inane ramblings and unfunny mugging. It’s a film that tries to wring humour out of characters talking a lot and yelling most of their lines and none of it works. I maybe laughed a few times, but as the film went on I got increasingly more irritated, and so little thought has gone into the structure and execution of the story that there are logical and narrative inconsistencies all over the place. For me it was an exasperating experience, an unfunny comedy that tries too hard to make a joke out of everything. So much so that, ironically, the biggest joke ends up being the film itself.
