Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Michael Ledo This is one of the weirdest, unexpected sequels since Halloween 3. The film opens with a quick flashback and picks up exactly where the last one leaves off. The police, along with some vigilantes torch the Sawyer house with the murdering cannibals inside. A little girl is saved and raised by one of the vigilantes. Now that she is grown, (Alexandra Daddario) Heather discovers she is adopted and the sole heir to the Sawyer plantation in Texas.She travels there with 3 college mates and picks up a person along the way, because the unwritten code of a Texas Chainsaw movie is the hitchhiker/rider. As it turns out, she is not the only heir left and you come to sympathize with the cannibal with a chainsaw.The film has its share of severed bodies, blood, and gore. The 3D action is climaxed with a chainsaw tossed at the camera. Remember this is a sequel. Keep the expectations low.Parental Guide: F-bombs. Implied sex. No nudity. Tania Raymonde bra/panties. Alexandra Daddario open shirt cleavage...and how did her shirt become buttoned shut once it was ripped open?

Coventry The "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" series is by far the most confusingly inconsistent and randomly structured horror film franchise in history! Please allow for a natural born horror geek like myself to provide, at the end of this user-comment, an overview. I'm not starting with it, in order not to scare off or put to sleep neutral readers. So, first the review! "Texas Chainsaw 3D" - which I actually saw in regular 2D - is a perfectly enjoyable and extremely brutal trash/gore flick, as long as you manage to overlook the giant gaps in continuity, the complete lack of logic in the script, the blandness of the lead characters and the utterly dumb plot twists. Everything starts out quite incorrect already. The intro supposedly takes place right after the events of Tobe Hooper's original in 1974. The Sawyer-baby who survives the family massacre then receives an inheritance letter in 2012. That would make her at least 38 years old, yet Heather is depicted by the fresh-faced Alexandra Daddario who's clearly still in her early twenties! You know you're in trouble when the director doesn't even bother to do the math. It gets worse when cute Heather decides to go and visit the farmhouse estate in rural Texas that she inherited, together with her adulterous boyfriend and unreliable girlfriend. Heather didn't bother to read her grandmother's letter in advance, so they painfully experience that her maniacal and chainsaw-wielding bastard cousin Leatherface still lives in the basement. Apparently, her grandma (cool cameo for Marilyn Burns) managed to keep his survival secret and his presence hidden all these years, even though the entire redneck town knows what happened and scrutinizes the estate. Following a totally absurd sequence at the police station, we're supposed to believe that the Sawyers were poor victims (even though they slaughtered innocent campers in the 70s and Leatherface still cheerfully saws people in half), while the rest of the town (led by the foul-mouthed Mayor Hartman) are the real psychopaths. I think it's abundantly clear to state that director John Luessenhop and his team of four (!) writers couldn't care less about a half-decent story. For as long as Leatherface is running around with his buzzing chainsaw like an idiot, or when Alexandra Daddario hangs tied up with her shirt unbuttoned, everything is alright for them. And, in all fairness, "Texas Chainsaw 3D" sure does deliver in the blood & gore department. Leatherface's mask may look tacky, but he "does his thing" with the chainsaw quite well. Even in 2D, you can tell that the 3D effects are clichéd and obvious (flying chainsaws, whirring blades coming at you, etc...) but I bet these gimmicks impressed lots of inexperienced horror fanatics wearing their goggles in theaters. As promised, an overview of the bizarre TCM franchise history. In 1974, Tobe Hooper and Kim Henkel changed the horror scene forever with their bare-bones but ultimately raw grindhouse masterpiece, loosely based - like so many other contemporary titles - on the sickening crimes of Wisconsin serial killer Ed Gein. The legendary tagline alone ("Who will survive and what will be left of them") was groundbreaking. Even though the film was an unexpected hit and spawned countless of rip-offs, it took no less than 12 years before the first sequel got released. Tobe Hooper directed it himself and, strangely enough, drastically changed the tone from raw and disturbing to absurd and slapstick. With Bill Moseley stealing the show as Chop Top, Leatherface's role in this sequel is rather limited and he even falls in love at one point! To compensate for Leatherface's supportive role in part 2, the second sequel got named after him. "Leatherface: Texas Chainsaw Massacre III" came out in 1990, and it's probably the least conspicuous installment of the entire franchise. The series hit rock-bottom in 1994, when the original co-writer Kim Henkel came up the pretty retarded "The Return of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre". Up until this point, the series evolved quite chronologically. But then in 2003 came a (poor) remake of the 1974 original. That film received its own prequel in 2006, rather boringly called "Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning", which was a lot better than expected. "Texas Chainsaw 3D" is supposedly a direct sequel to the 1974 original, but in 2017 there came another prequel named "Leatherface". None of the sequels/prequels seem to take into consideration the previous films, by the way. In "Texas Chainsaw 3D", we're led to believe that Leatherface has always been mentally handicapped, but in the 2017 prequel he's depicted as a normally functioning adolescent. Eight films, seven different actors to play Leatherface, but the only one everybody remembers is Gunnar Hansen.

bashir27 Plot holes plot holes plot holes. And the story doesn't even make any sense

ivo-cobra8 *MAJOR SPOILERS* This is absolutely garbage STINKER the worst horror movie sequel ever made! The Texas Chain Saw Massacre was always the worst horror franchise and the sequels are absolutely the worst horror films! Texas Chainsaw 3D is a peace a garbage movie! It is so bad material film that everyone in this movie is awful, the acting is trash, the writing is lazy the direction is terrible. Everyone from the actors and actresses in this movie are asshole and a scumbag they are not likable. I did not care about any of the characters and I did not had any mourn for leatherface at all. I hate this franchise and I blame Marilyn Burns for this disappointment failure! Who wrote this crap anyway? Why did Marilyn Burns return after 38 years in a cameo role to play the villain on the end of the film? She played a heroine in 1974 Sally Hardesty a likable beautiful character a hero and a soul survivor that everyone loved including me. But suddenly she played an aunt of leatherface on the end of the movie in a cameo role she played accomplice to a villain psycho serial killer! Just why? She sold her soul only to get a gab cash to get a paycheck. She was awful and she lost a respect by me because of this movie. She had a cameo role in Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation why? Only to get a paycheck I guess. I hate this franchise and I hate the actress for making a cameo role to play a villain to a serial killer leatherface. Did Heather Langenkamp return in A Nightmare on Elm Street sequels to play a villain? No. Did Jamie Lee Curtis from Halloween return to play a villain in any of the Halloween sequels? no. Did Amy Steel from Friday the 13th Part 2 return to play in any Friday the 13th sequels to play accomplice to a serial killer, no. Did Lar Park-Lincoln from Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood return to play the accomplice to a serial killer in the sequel's no. Did Lisa Wilcox from a Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master return in any of the sequels to play a cameo role a villain? No! No one of the actresses who played a heroine returned in a sh**ty cameo role but Marilyn Burns did that, that is why she lost my respect.This movie sucks a dick, should it suppose to be a family horror film or something? I did not cheer or mourn for any of the characters in this movie they were all assholes and unlikable! This movie turn in to a lead character Heather (Alexandra Daddario) from a shi**less victim, from a heroine to a villain in this film! Heather's friends are brutally murdered by Leatherface, whom she discovers to be her cousin, she feels sorry for him and loves him because he's "family?! It's not even like he's a close relative. She doesn't even know him. One minute she's scared sh**less of him and the next she loves him AND helps him kill a couple more people?? Are we supposed to believe that her thought process was: "Oh, hey Cuz, you just knocked me out in the kitchen, almost cut me up with a chainsaw in a coffin, tried killing me by flipping our van, chased me through a carnival with a chainsaw forcing me to hang on to a Ferris Wheel for my life AND killed all of my friends. But that's all okay.. I forgive you because we're family. Now I'm going to help you kill people and take care of you for the rest of my life." All I could say was... Seriously... wtf just happened. She stabs a guy with a working tool fork trampled him and than she throw a chainsaw to Leatherface helped him to kill more people wtf! Her friends were all assholes the black guy who played Heather's boyfriend was cheating her with her best friend Nikki (Tania Raymonde). Her best friend Nikki is a junkie addicted to drugs we see her smoking a pot, that guy who played Darryl was a user and a thief he was stealing from the Sawyer house and he let leatherface out because of him people died. Alexandra Daddario stinks! She is the worst awful horrible actress in the movie business ever and Scott Eastwood is also horrible in this STINKER movie ever. F 1/10The original was a classic and a perfect good film. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 sucks too only Dennis Hopper was good in it. Leatherface: Texas Chainsaw Massacre III in my opinion is the best sequel movie I like. We at least have likable characters we have young Viggo Mortensen, Ken Foree from Dawn of the Dead (1978) and of course Kate Hodge better actress and heroine than ugly Alexandra Daddario - her acting was horrible in this movie! The 2003 remake was awesome it was my first film of the TCM I saw and Jessica Biel was awesome bad ass and likable heroine she was Miles way better than Alexandra Daddario. I did not see Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation or The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning yet and I never will!
