Dueling Critics
“It’s an old-fashioned slasher, with Leatherface as the masked killer. [Its] narrative efficiency and tight 81-minute running time make it an ideal delivery system for creative kills and memorable gore…[A] solid and satisfying addition to the series.”
“What garbage. Seriously. What absolute, bereft, witless, unoriginal, unrewarding, soulless garbage that’s 40 years past scaring anybody. The only power this formula retains is the power to make you feel a little sad — at the ugliness, at the cynicism, and at the pathetic waste of your own mind as you watch it.”
