    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Apr 2, 2004 | 3 out of 4 found this The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003) review helpful

    Pros: Lots of style

    Cons: Remakes usually stink.

    I was prepared to hate a remake of TCM. Remakes as a general rule usually stink (Psycho comes to mind!!!!)I saw the trailer & thought if this wasn't Texas Chainsaw... it looked pretty good. I didn't see the new one in Theatres. I didn't w...ant to patronize what had to be a bastardization of the original. When I first saw it, it couldn't possibly live up to the hype.Later I came to appreciate it more.The original did a lot on a small budget.It was scary,relentless and loud (all that screaming !!!!) I waited for DVD & was surprised. It's not a remake but more of a retelling or reinvention. The 2nd disc is loaded with extras. It covers all aspects of the making of the new TCM. Usually deleted scenes are better left out.These ones would've enhanced this one. The alternate opening & closing ones were interesting but were best changed.One alternate death scene was pretty wild!! I really liked the teaser trailer used to sell the Film before it was even made. We're told it was banned from being used theatrically. There are lots of difference between this & the original,from the Hitchiker to Leatherface's Family.I don't want to spoil it for You.In a year of lame Horror Films (Gothika, House of the Dead)this is worth seeing!!!!

    this...is...AWESOME!!!!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Mar 27, 2004 | 2 out of 4 found this The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003) review helpful

    Pros: a man in a mask made out of flesh with a chainsaw

    Cons: i wondered what that basement smelt like???(lol)

    I didn't find this movie as an exact remake. This seemed like a vision by Michael Bay. Nothing could beat the orginal but this makes me satisfied. I don't care about those uptight movie critics, or these so-called "Vetrans to scary movie...s", this movie was not made an exact remake. The people don't want to see the same exact movie only with better picture, they want to see a new type of this movie. We aren't comparing this movie to the old one, this is just a seperate review (In general). Of course if you compare this movie to the original TCM, the new TCM wouldn't be as good. In fact no other movie could beat this. I can agree, the new teen slashers are getting old and a bit cheesy. The new Texas Chainsaw Massacre is just a wake up call, and let us remember how scary horror movies really are. Read more Less

    The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Apr 17, 2004 | 1 out of 2 found this The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003) review helpful

    Pros: pretty freaky

    Cons: Teens are dumb

    I dont know,I would'nt want to compare this to the first TCM...so i wont,I will base it as its own beast....It has some fairly well set up scare shot's and for the most part its ok....but damn the teens in this flick might be boarder line ret...ards(even for a horror flick).....Its a good rent the special edition is neat with stuff to see,but if you want to see who leather face is about there is a movie 'Ed Gein' which shows you his whole deal....all in all its a tightly shot film with so~so acting....

    Scarier than a trip to the dentist.

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jun 12, 2007

    Pros: It's a terrifying roller-coaster ride from start to finish.

    Cons: I had to change my underwear after it was over.

    Ten minutes into this movie, a girl sitting in the back of a van sticks a gun in her mouth and pulls the trigger. Bang! Blood and brain matter fly everywhere and the other teenagers in the van are aghast. Then comes the most amazing shot ever filmed ...in horror cinema history. The camera shows the horrified expressions of onlookers. Then it pulls back through the girls mouth and the gaping hole in the back of her head, out the broken glass in the brain-splattered back window, and pulls back into the distance to show the other passengers fleeing from the van. Gore aside, it was an extremely impressive and creative way of depicting such a horrifying event. And it sets the tone for the rest of the remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. This film pulls no punches. Just when you think that it can't get any more macabre and horrifying, this film crosses the threshold and goes into shocking new territory. This version stayed true to the The only film I can think of that rivals this is Hostel. So if you like to be scared, disgusted and shocked, then the remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is a must-see film. Read more Less

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Feb 3, 2006

    Pros: Good effort

    Cons: The original TCM is better

    This movie was well done, I like it alright...but the original is still the best. The first just has a creepier atmosphere, but this is still a pretty good movie.

    BBQ in the 2000 era

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Dec 22, 2004

    Pros: version gives leatherface a face lift

    Cons: some unrealistic scenes

    Leatherface comes back into the 2000 era, retelling the nightmarish tale. Good story but when Leatherface stuck the guy on the hook, it is unrealistic that he would still be living, on top of that the girl who helps end his suffering by stabbing him ...would only make him suffer more. Could have been better. Oh well, so how do you want your Texas BBQ. Read more Less
