Watch this movie to see what a horror movie is all about
When I first watched this movie on vhs some 10+ years ago, I knew this was the measuring stick to which all horror movies must measure up to.From the grim, dark disgusting scenes of corpses and human skeletal parts to the sheer horror of Leatherface's buzzing chainsaw, you'll know you're in for a shocking good time.The DVD has a few special additions like some deleted scenes and alternate scenes, but unfortunately they're mostly silent. I didn't feel there was enough "special" features. I would have liked to have seen a 2 DVD set with the second DVD chock full of nothing but gory extras. With that said, it's still a good deal.I guess it was too dificult to go through all the footage that's some 30 years old.The movie has been transferred from the original film with great care. There was no noticable grain, dust or anything else to distract from the movie itself.If you want to be scared out of your pants, buy this DVD.Don't watch it alone in the dark, unless you know what you're getting into.TCM 1 was the best of the TCM movies to date (I haven't seen the 2003 remake yet though)TCM 2 is a close secong place, with Dennis Hopper!!TCM 3 Leatherface was ok, but not spectactular.TCM 4 the next generation aka the return of TCM was again ok.
