Trailer Synopsis Cast

Two college students driving coast to coast are lured off the main highway and onto a deserted Texas road. Here they are stalked by the menacing Leatherface and his demented family...a bizarre cannibalistic clan with blood on their hands and a feast on their minds. The students’ only chance for escape is a survivalist with enough firepower to blast Leatherface and the rest of the grisly predators to hell. A depraved shocker of intense terror from the gruesome beginning to the bloody finish.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

The difference in film making between Part 3 and the first two films is night and day. This really isn't even a direct sequel so to speak because there is no returning characters in the family besides Leatherface and ones that are were previously killed off in previous movies. This makes the timeline and events of the trilogy really puzzling and more or a re-imagining here. There isn't even really a whole lot to actually like about the film in general besides brief moments from Viggo Mortenson and Kate Hodge. I enjoyed the film periodically but I'm sure there's plenty of Texas Chainsaw fans that were pleased with this installment.

Review based on the unrated version.A college-aged couple, delivery driving a car from California to Florida, are sidetracked by a police investigation of a body pit found at a construction site in the Texas countryside. (Camera flashes, illuminating the corpses (in the unedited version, anyway) are a good reference to the first film) The next day, the couple have a bizarre experience with a psycho hick apparently killing a cowboy at a small gas station. While trying to get away and find help, they're detoured onto a side road ... and that's when the real fun begins.An over-sized truck begins stalking them, then throws a dead animal at them. In the excitement, they drive off the road and puncture a tire. While changing the tire, a hulk with a chainsaw attacks them. Narrowly escaping him, they only end up nearly in a head-on collision with a weekend warrior.The three of them eventually team up; the couple are just trying to live through the night, but the weekend warrior wants to go after our new friend with the chainsaw.This has dialogue far superior to the original, and isn't as silly and over-the-top as the underrated Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2. It's graphic, but it uses its gore and bloodshed almost as part of telling the story, as well as referencing the original Texas Chain Saw Massacre (through camera angles, props, and bits of dialogue) without going so far as to rip off that film. The music score was surprisingly effective, and did not distract from the movie itself.David Schow did a great job with this screenplay, for the most part, but film falls into the "undying killer" mode in its repetitive final third, where seemingly every character (Tex, Alfredo, Leatherface, Benny) returns from the dead for one last encore performance.Unfortunately, the theatrical version of the movie was seemingly edited with a chainsaw, and released in a horribly truncated version, missing several minutes of footage and rendering much of the plot incoherent. Thankfully the unedited/ unrated version has been released on DVD.

Traveling through the desert together, a brother-and-sister couple encounters a murderous, cannibalistic family that preys on travelers hunting along the highway and team up with a survivalist to stave off the family's advances.This here turned out to be decent and actually quite enjoyable actually. The main aspect to this that works really well is the impressive atmosphere, with the film being rather creepy despite being set at night but it makes the film just that much better because the majority of the action takes place at night and that is really tough to pull off, yet it's done nicely here. The gore is great as well, with plenty of gruesome, bloody moments that are far more squirm-inducing than expected, and coupled with some fine jump moments and a nasty streak that runs throughout, this one isn't quite as bad as is generally reported. There's still some flaws here, as the family again changes around members needlessly, the original 'rated' cut of the film is virtually bloodless and with a low body count to chop up, it doesn't have a lot of deaths to dole out. Still, it's far better than expected.Rated R: Graphic Language and Graphic Violence.

Thank god that moved ended it! I did not like it at all, not that gory and not that scary at all and really poor acting from everyone in this movie and all of them really annoyed the hell out of me and I did care if they died or not.I did not like TCM 2, which I gave a 4 out of 10 and this is going to get the same rating.At least Leatherface was not a softy in this move like the second one, the only good think I can about this movie but still did not find him that scary.I found everything else so bad, that I was laughing most of the time. (And this was not cut version)
