As an ugly and cynical attempt to rebrand Leatherface as horror anti-hero, Texas Chainsaw 3D is a bold move for the franchise. Read critic reviews

Every horror clich in the book is unleashed.

The trend lately in Hollywood is that the first weekend in January belongs to horror. Unfortunately for us, it's subpar horror.

This new film survives on its formulaic horror mechanics and the powerful image of a chain saw wielded in 3-D.

When making a sequel to a beloved genre classic, it's generally unwise to include clips of the masterpiece you're attempting to live up to.

Texas Chainsaw 3D isn't exactly good, but despite its many clichs and generic indulgences, you want to give it some points for trying.

The original "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" leaves audiences feeling hollowed out, dispirited and dissolute. "Texas Chainsaw 3D" is simply a bummer for being a big nothing.

Audience Reviews for Texas Chainsaw

Oct 26, 2015I know I should have hated Texas Chainsaw 3D, it was an insult to the audience and more importantly to the original film. The CGI in the climax was awful and the story was about as dumb as they get. The whole time I couldn't stop myself thinking about how the whole thing made literally *no* sense. But darn it I actually had a fair amount of fun with this one. And I guess, points for trying your hand at an iota of originality, even if, again, it made no sense.Gimly M Super Reviewer

Oct 04, 2013Laughable, cheaply made and completely illogical sequel to the original Tobe Hooper classic that features gratuitous but dull violence, stupid performances, and giant plot holes. And if this is set "now", why isn't the lead character in her late thirties?!?Daniel P Super Reviewer

Jun 10, 2013Sharpen your chainsaws, cause it's time for another massacre in Texas Chainsaw 3D. This pseudo-reboot picks up where the original ended, as a lynch mob comes for Leatherface and the Sawyer clan, and burns them alive in their home; however a child survives and returns years later (along with some friends) when her grandmother leaves her an estate, but she finds that she's inherited more than she'd expected. Alexandra Daddario leads the cast and does a fair job as a scream queen. But there are a lot of script problems, and the film doesn't do anything new or interesting with Leatherface. Texas Chainsaw 3D has a few thrills and scares, but it's too formulaic and lazy to really deliver that much terror.Dann M Super Reviewer

Jun 06, 2013After reading & hearing so many bad reviews for TCM3D I went in thinking I was absolutely going to hate it but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.I loved the way it started off but when it switched from past to present that's when I really expected that I would start hating it but I didn't.I enjoyed the movie up until the part where I guess I was suppose to feel sorry for Leatherface.It didn't make me hate the movie but it did make me feel WEIRD.Who's really going to feel sorry for Leatherface!? I didn't find TCM3D to be all that bad, Maybe just strange especially with the final plot twist & the way it ended.I do wish I would've gone to see it in 3D at the theaterBrody M Super Reviewer
