What's this sh*****t? Where's the logic in this? **I don't recommend it just waste time**.

The problem now is that the successful film formula revolves around nostalgia, rehashing familiar sequences and storylines, and bringing back survivors for one final confrontation. This has all proven to crush the box office, especially during the pandemic. This results in there being no originality or creativity anymore; it’s just a repetition of what we’ve already seen. Until Leatherface can get a fresh face to wear, the _Texas Chainsaw Massacre_ franchise is doomed to run in circles with a sp…

Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2022) is a film I was looking forward to for a while, although I wasn't sure why. I had been very disappointed in the last couple additions to the TCM franchise, so I knew it was very likely that it would not be any different with this one.

Found out that Elsie Fisher and I were born exactly one year apart, weird. Cool movie though!

The reluctant "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" franchise gets yet another reboot/reimagining/sequel, but this time they go the Halloween/Kills/Ends route and bring back a surviving character from the original film. Things don't work out as well here as they did for the "Halloween" series. Four idealistic, or naive?, friends purchase a ghost town in Texas. They plan on renovating the entire town, and turning it into a progressive haven where they can save the world. Sisters Melody (Sarah Yarkin) a…

This is all-in-all a decent remake of an original that didn't have that much going for it other than its sheer shock-value. This adaptation weaves in some characters, a message about gentrification, some yokals, and dilapitated abandoned towns to make it more than just 'scary person with wood-cutter engine'. I think the movie does this reasonably well. There is precious little to work with but the movie chugs along, the actors are all pulling their weight, the direction is solid and the movie is…
