cricketbat on IMDb — Despite its reputation, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre is surprisingly tame. There’s no sex, no nudity, no F-words, and most of the violence takes place off screen. Even the cannibalism is merely implied instead of shown. But this movie is also pretty slow. They drag out almost every scene to pad the run time and still barely reach 83 minutes. However, when the engine finally gets running, there’s no denying that this is a creepy, creepy movie.
Ifsoboy567 on IMDb — What a classic movie! What a horrible movie! The sound of the chainsaw. Yeah! The sound of violence!!! It’s one of my favorite horror movies! You must watch this movie if you are an avid horror lover.
Dar Star on IMDb — I can appreciate this being a groundbreaking film to introduce lots of slasher film concepts to follow, but it doesn’t make it a great film. No character development at all. The acting is horrendous. And the scares are all the same basically. For a real horror classic The Shining is light years better. Still I rate it a 6 for its pioneering of a new genre.
bignando-59452 on IMDb — This movie was so scary and creepy when I first saw it as a teenage in the 80’s, and it has retained most of its power and impact today. There was nothing even close to this weird back then and few have come close since. The low budget adds tremendously to th sleaze and creepiness. very few movies have ever achieved it’s pure lunacy. It’s great to watch again every once in a while.
