This is what good horror film moviemaking is all about - story, characters, visual appeal and genuine jump out of your seat terror!

Starts promisingly but soon becomes yet another sub-standard American gorefest, with little or no real body.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 7, 2019

...Continuing where the first left off? Good idea. Filling the movie with unlikable characters, stupid plot twists and broken continuity? Terrible idea.

| Original Score: 2/10 | Nov 1, 2018

Every horror clich in the book is unleashed.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Aug 9, 2016

The trend lately in Hollywood is that the first weekend in January belongs to horror. Unfortunately for us, it's subpar horror.

| Original Score: F | Apr 23, 2015

Characters usually suffer their terrible fates through blatant stupidity.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 21, 2014

embarrasses a horror icon

| Original Score: 1/5 | Oct 18, 2013

The gore is plentiful, the acting is solid, and Leatherface is a monster once again.

| May 16, 2013

It deserves a modicum of credit for actually making you despise a chainsaw-wielding maniac less than a bunch of lowlife redneck scum.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Feb 15, 2013

Texas Chainsaw immediately establishes itself as a significant improvement over the various other entries in this enduring franchise...

| Original Score: 3/4 | Feb 1, 2013

The equivalent of filmic road kill ... An abridged version of the original, rendered in bad 3D, serves as a pre-credit set-up and makes us long for the real deal.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 26, 2013

You may think that after six movies that there would be nothing left to say on the topic of Texas chainsaw massacres, and you would be right.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 17, 2013

Director John Luessenhop delivers some jolts as well as much gruesomeness, but a bogus ending and the convoluted morality of a script that tries to transform the vengeful Leatherface into a sympathetic if psychotic antihero hamstrings his efforts.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 15, 2013

( ... ) you might want to imagine I'm wielding a chainsaw that's making the noise rrrrrrrrrrrLLLLLLLLL! And that, as I write, I'm chopping up the three scriptwriters and three story writers on the grounds of over-manning (ditto, nine producers).

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 13, 2013

Leatherface is a loser.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 12, 2013

Seeing a flick in January usually means lowering your expectations, but no moviegoer should have to endure this.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Jan 11, 2013

Leatherface is the smartest one in this picture: he's the only one with the good sense to cover up his face so no one will know he was involved in this putrid waste of time.

| Original Score: .5/5 | Jan 11, 2013

This new film survives on its formulaic horror mechanics and the powerful image of a chain saw wielded in 3-D.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 11, 2013

There are some gory kills and some goofy fun as a huge chainsaw thrusts out of the screen in 3D, but this is a generic by the numbers slasher that squanders TCM's grimy history.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 11, 2013

Includes some of the absolute worst 3-D effects that I can ever remember seeing.

| Original Score: 2/10 | Jan 10, 2013
