Product: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (Original Uncut) [Region 2] (1974)
Rating: 1.0
I don't understand the thrill of this
Texas Chainsaw Massacre was for the 70's what Blair Witch Project was for the 90's. A low budget Hoax that did not prduce very good thrills and even less chills.The idea behind Texas Chainsaw is that a group of teens are traveling across Texas when theypick up a hitchhiker who looks a little crazed. WHen he starts doing some strange things (Such as cutting himself with a razor) they throw him out. Later they come upon an abandoned house and while exploring they discover a cabin further down the road. This is where we meet LEather Face (who is dressed up as woman) and he immediatly dispatches of a number of them. In the end one girl survives his twisted family and as she tries to escape she is pursued by Leather Face and his kin.This movie by today's standards is not very good. True when it gets towards the end it is relentless but so was Blair Witch. Unfortunatly with this movie the gore is lackluster, the acting is poor, and the whole thing led to an hour and a half of pure boredom. I shall pass on this one.
