I beg of you Hollywood, stop kicking this dead horse of a franchise and let it DIE already on film and live on through merchandise, comics, books and video games to appreal, it's already dead after The Beginning. The franchise is now just a joke thanks to The Next Generation, Texas Chainsaw 3D aka Three-Dicks and Leatherface 2017, the last worthwhile TCM movie was 3 back in 1990. The 2003 remake was decent but i'm a fan of the first 3 films.

Just end this dead franchise and send it to the slaughterhouse and bury it. Enough is enough, if there is any fans of the first 2 movies even with the third movie and who thought the remake was decent who is fed up with what's been done to this franchise and this character for the last 24 years, don't go see the movie in theater as you can wait until netflix or rent it some place as it's better than buying a movie ticket, also i ain't gonna watch the TV show as i know it will suck ass like the Scream one.

Just let Leatherface go, let him rest in peace and his memory/legacy live on through comics, books, merchandise and appreal to video games, let it just die please and come up with new horror franchises and new icons. This is how fans who dislike what's been done to the franchise to send their message to the studios even to make new horror icons and new franchises.

I’m not in support of this movie (mostly because I don’t really like the franchise), but I don’t think we needed another diatribe about why you don’t like sequels to slasher movies.

s2mikey · 08-28-2018, 11:18 AM

Ugh. Even the original these days feels lame and outdated. I couldn’t care less about any of this. Probably change the sex of the characters too. Leather face will be an old woman this time. Lol.

And a TV series? Huh? Good with that. It’ll be canceled after 3-4 episodes.

The only thing in that article that I liked was the idea of a shared universe between the slashers. That is something I would pay to see

phobicsquirrel · 08-28-2018, 02:06 PM

Man what is wrong with these studios!!! People obviously watch anything, just look at the learning "brain numbing" channel. Easy pass.

ChainsawJedi · 08-28-2018, 10:41 PM

Even after all these years, I still keep the faith that some day, somehow, someone will come up with an entry in this series that is worthy of the Texas Chain Saw moniker.

If a TV series is what it takes, then so be it. It worked for Hannibal. It worked for Wolf Creek. But enough with the revisionism. Either go with something that is in line with the first two films or the Platinum Dunes "redux" and its prequel. I don't think we really need another re-imagining of the characters and the story.

I enjoy the series,but want to see one where leatherface dies. unlike most movies he is an ordinary human

I think the OP is that annoying ramboraph dude from YouTube. Y’know, that guy who hates The Social Network but praised Fant4stic? He said the exact same thing about TCM in his Texas Chainsaw 3D review.

He kept pushing a Youtube channel saying how great these guy’s reviews were so I think you may be right.

The 2003 remake was pretty solid - probably the best after the original.

For me there are only four films in the series that are worth watching: the two by Tobe Hooper and the two by Platinum Dunes.

The one with Alexandra Daddario is good trashy fun.

AaronJ · 08-31-2018, 11:07 PM

I think that the 2003 remake is the best of all of them. I found it incredibly disturbing.

I didn't find it disturbing but I do I regard it as a solid, balls-to-the-wall horror film. And at the time it came out, there was precious little in the way of decent horror, the genre having been swallowed up by those stupid Scream films and their imitators.

Well, I love the Scream movies.

But in TCM, Biel was so great. And I don't mean just how hot she was. She did an incredible job in that film, I thought.

No argument from me about that. She did a fine job as the "final girl".
