Title: Dissapointing Re-imagining.
Review: Well, it had to happen did,nt it ? In this world of remakes and rehashes someone had to ressurect this horror classic, the only trouble is it just does,nt work! The interesting part of this double disc presentation is the excellent documentary EPK which is on disc two. This little gem is a must for those interested in going behind the scenes of these movies, very nicely done! The second documentary, The American Nightmare, has been a special feature on another horror DVD, which it makes it a dissapointing choice for a second special feature. Tobe Hooper tries to work his magic but the story just can,t decide whether its trying to be like Texas Chainsaw or Friday 13th. Jason Voorhees or Leatherface? Take your pick? The scriptwriters tell us that this is a re-imagining,not, a remake, but to be honest they might have made this a lot more scary if they,d stuck to the original premise! Angela Bettis is superb, its just a pity the fear factor scores a total of Nil!!!!
