Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/02/23 Full Review Ernest B Start to finish, the perfect horror movie. Not a drop of fake blood nor a frame of film wasted. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/09/24 Full Review Shannon S It's an awesome feeling to watch this grindhouse classic 50 years after it had already been released. Although an old watch, I feel elements of the film still held up and feel way less sterile then most horror movies made today. Some of the big scenes that were meant to be scary (such as the kills scenes) were underwhelming. Most likely due to the lofi/amateur like approach to this film. But the eeriness of some characters and the drawn out pacing of certain sequences left you on the edge of your seat with feelings of impending doom and paranoia. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/05/24 Full Review Teddy B The cheapness of the film is utilised beautifully towards creating a terrifying atmosphere in which the audience is as helpless as the characters. One surprising thing about this deserved classic is Tobe Hooper's appealing eye for cinematography and framing. Leagues above your usual exploitation film and an inspiring lesson of how to use a tiny budget to your advantage. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/04/24 Full Review matthias s If you’re into horror, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is a classic you can't ignore. It’s a wild, gritty ride that still holds up in many ways. The film does a fantastic job of creating a raw and unsettling atmosphere. The use of practical effects and grainy visuals really adds to the creepiness. Leatherface is as terrifying as ever, with his chainsaw revving up the tension. Some scenes are so intense they made me feel sick, but that just adds to the horror experience. The plot is pretty straightforward and doesn’t have many twists, which can feel a bit predictable if you’ve seen other slashers. Some parts drag a little, but the intense, claustrophobic scenes make up for it. The acting is decent, considering the budget constraints. Overall, it’s a solid horror flick that paved the way for the genre. After watching it, I definitely want to check out the entire franchise!
