I saw this movie tonight. I say movie because of course I would not put it into the category of a film...cos I'm a snob. But anywho...if you know me, you know that I am obsessed with the horror genre. I loved the original TCM and I loved the remake a few years ago. I was really looking forwawrd to this one...and I definitely wasn't dissapointed. It rocked. Full of gore and crying and screaming. I was really suprised by some of it though. A lot of the characters lasted a lot longer than I thought they would.
I loved it because you got to see why a lot of stuff from TCM (2003) was the way it was. How the sherrif became sherrif, how he lost his front teeth, how Monty lost his legs, etc. Good times.
I also liked how they took a lot of things from the original one from the 70's and put it in this movie. Like the famous dinner scene. That was in the original movie. Of course it was modified a little bit to fit this story, but it even had the main girl jumping out of a window. Rock.
Most of you reading this probably think I am some sort of freak. lol I'm not...but its ok if you do.
I want to go to film school some day and I want to direct horror movies very badly. Its my favorite genre.
But I would reccomend this to any film buffs out there...or people who just love horror movies in general.
Good times were had for me tonight.
Leatherface is awesome.
