Texas Chainsaw 3D continues the legendary story of the
homicidal Sawyer family, picking up where Tobe Hooper's 1974 horror classic
left off in Newt, Texas, where for decades people went missing without a trace.
The townspeople long suspected the Sawyer family, owners of a local barbeque
pit, were somehow responsible. Their suspicions were finally confirmed one hot
summer day when a young woman escaped the Sawyer house following the brutal
murders of her four friends. Word around the small town quickly spread, and a
vigilante mob of enraged locals surrounded the Sawyer stronghold, burning it to
the ground and killing every last member of the family - or so they thought.
Decades later and hundreds of miles away from the original massacre, a young
woman named Heather learns that she has inherited a Texas estate from a
grandmother she never knew she had. After embarking on a road trip with friends
to uncover her roots, she finds she is the sole owner of a lavish, isolated
Victorian mansion. But her newfound wealth comes at a price as she stumbles
upon a horror that awaits her in the mansion's dank cellars.
This movie was pretty much awful. It’s not like I expected anything good from
it going in, but it was actually worse.
There were pretty much zero frights and I never thought I would say
this, even the amount of gore was pretty lame . . . . . especially for the
blatant “3D” version. To make matters
worse they tried to expand the story.
They even went so far as to try and portray Leatherface as misunderstood
and . . . . . .wait for it . . . . . one of the good guys. Yeah.
That happened.
I would recommend nobody bother with the bazillionth attempt
at this movie or an expansion of it. It
is a total waste of 90 minutes of your life.
