July 2, 2009Al principio parecía que no, pero al final se transformo en entretenida. Mucha sangre y mutilaciones y todas esas cosas que ya sabemos. No es nada nuevo pero sirve para pasar el rato.

August 3, 2007From all the Texas chainsaw massacre this have to be the goriest & the least was the original which probably back in the 70's did look brutal now is more like a family movie compared to other horror films.

April 19, 2007What a fucking waste of money, not gory enough, story sucked, this is why people shouldn't make remakes they ruin the fun and intensity of the original and it didn't even fit well with the remake this was an excuse to make it more like the original, nothing beats the original inbred brothers with a good eye for beef if your going to watch any TCM movie watch the original 2 which are the ways the characters are supposed to be not some half assed kid who got picked on
