Negative Positive
Title: Meh.
Review: I dunno how people can prefer this over the original. It is not suspenseful at all, and it is remotely entertaining. Other than that it is pretty boring and overall plotless. The ending was dumb, the opening was slow, and how somebody could walk out of the theatre in a "state of shock" after seeing this poorly done film.However, there were a few points that I found entertaining. Such as the pursuit scene through the woods, and at least Leatherface rakes in the bodies here. Hammers, chainsaw, hooks, etc. All that stuff is here but it wasn't the gothic, dark, dirty, creepy bloodfest that the new one was.The new one was far more entertaining and suspenseful, not to mention Leatherface was much scarier looking. I mean, in the this one (original) you do not know that his mask is made of skin, but at least you figure out that they're cannibals.All in all, I give the original TCM about a 2.5. It was good enough to keep, but I kinda wish I had gotten those three other Freddy movies instead of this.
Is the review positive or negative?
