The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning
Let me start off by saying I'm a huge horror/slasher fan so this review is a little biased. If you can't handle blood, guts, and gore this movie isn't for you. It shocked me and I consider myself pretty thick skinned when it comes to movies like this.
If you thought Hostel was bad you ain't seen nothing yet. TCM: The Beginning answers every question you've ever had about this series, and if you're a huge fan of the TCM series you'll pick up on things that the casual fan will miss.
Every character was perfectly cast and this is the only TCM movie where I have really wanted everybody to escape. The entire cast was great, but R. Lee Ermey absolutely blew my mind, he was good in the 2003 remake but he was absolutely spectacular in this. Andrew Bryniarski is even better as Leatherface than he was in the 2003 remake, I think that has more to do with the production than anything else, but he was much more menacing.
Everything about this film screams best slasher movie of the decade, the quality, the effects, the sound, everything is perfect. Perfect for slasher fans that is... this is the goriest movie I have ever seen.
Final Verdict:
5/5
Rent or Buy?: You couldn't ask for anything more from this movie, it's a perfect prequel... if you're a huge fan of slashers this belongs on your shelf, if you can't handle gore you might want to stay away.
