Not even remotely worth writing a review for, but thought I'd say something after giving this one yet another shot last night. Yeah, I'm just not feeling this one. Never will.
What the hell happened here? That was a pretty sweet trailer they had there, but what a mediocre, somewhat pointless attempt at keeping a series going. The first one is legendary for a reason. Genuinely scary. TCM2 was almost equally as good, but in a more crazy 80's slasher kinda way, which I think was a wise route to take at that point. Part 4, of course, is the one literally everyone on the planet hates except Fuad. But this Leatherface movie is just kinda there. It's not that bad, it's certainly not that good, but does anyone give a fuck about this movie or even have opinions one way or the other?
And I'm still not entirely sure if this is supposed to be Leatherface from 1&2 (well, obviously not 2), or just some similar character. Who's all those people he's lving with? Like a foster family? And is that supposed to be the same grandpa? That fucker is clearly long dead. Are they ever all that clear on how we got from the original to this one? Because I'm pretty sure that narration in the beginning doesn't clear up as much as it should.
