Leatherface: Texas Chainsaw Massacre III

After the madness of 2 we are now treated to the blandest members of the Sawyer family. It's gooey sure, but thr characters are so painfully uninteresting you're wishing for even a Franklin to show up. They're just gross Texans who cares.

With both the previous installments being notable for either forward thinking horror, or a rip-roaring good time of the second, neither of them were quite like anything that had been done before. This installment is the first to hit all the mundane notes that had made slashers boring by the late 80's, and it came out at the dryest of the dry spells for the genre. It's a horrible, forgettable movie, and one of the worst of the franchise, hell, one of the worst of multiple franchises.

Unebelievably bad. The action horror set-pieces seemed like they were interrupted due to budget cuts before they were actually finished. Also, it plays like a clean remake of the original, obviously with way less talent. I kinda like the family and Foree's presence and the survivalist character, but the whole thing feels so clumsy and badly put together -- it starts out as a trip gone sour, flirts with a hunt in the jungle and ends up with torture that never takes place in the cannibal house.

it's sad when Leatherface's top priority is fucking up vehicles

Another excellent example of movie makers not letting the dead lie.
