It's kind of surprising. And interesting. And even entertaining after a fashion, if your idea of entertainment involves warranty-voiding uses of the Black & Decker catalog.

A giant turd of a movie that was made because someone had the rights to a brand name and needed to exercise them in a timely manner. The 3D sucks too.

An enjoyable sequel that could never live up to the legacy of the original film, and to its credit doesn't try to, but does at least rinse out the sour taste of the Platinum Dunes installments.

Is this a great film? Not even close! How about an enjoyable entry in a decent horror series? I reckon it is!

Will no doubt divide audiences, even within die-hard fan circles, but it is almost always preferable to take chances than to repeat old tropes with no concern for putting a spin on things.

Loud and thoroughly predictable, and yet another modern horror flick more interested in the killer than the killed.

A few fun 3D-aided jump-scares aside, Texas Chainsaw 3D is a generic and laughable attempt to follow the original.

Audience Reviews for Texas Chainsaw 3D

Nikki: Do you know anything about this place?
Heather: Just the address.

Starting this year out on the right foot, the latest entry in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise manages to put Hollywood in a position to go nowhere but up. I do enjoy my share of horror films and was happy to enter into this film with an open mind, but man is it terrible. Given my love for the original film and my general fondness for the second, the idea of a film billed as a direct continuation of the original entry written and directed by Tobe Hooper was slightly intriguing. Even in a post-Cabin in the Woods world, where horror movies can be boiled down to words on a dry erase board, I went for it. The results were not good. Texas Chainsaw 3D is not just a bad film, it is an idiotic one that literally cannot do basic math. Read on to find out why.

It wasn't a bad movie even though it didn't follow the original events, I hadn't seen the originals, but the one I saw didn't fit this. It was a decent movie though.
