Itt We discuss why there will never be an honest portrayal of leatherface in his prime and glory and how the original films idea will never be done Justice.
>No one wants to see a 6"1 confused, demented, manchild choke a poor yet purdy blonde teenager too death by violently forcing her to give him a special kiss while he's wearing her dad's face
The original film was all about idea and detail, It wanted you smell the Gore and gristle, it wanted to shock you with the mad image and thought of pretty much being manhandled and and chased by a degenerated family and their chainsaw with legs.
Tl;dr all these new leatherface films are gay anus juice.
The guy that played new Leatherface was Zangief in the Street Fighter movie.
Landon Wood
No one cares
Gavin Turner
Imagine this guy except with a bigger belly and the mind of a 7 year old, wearing someone's face, cooing and giggling like a big baby, playing with ur purdy blonde hair, the smell of head cheese broth flowing out his mouth.
Charles Williams
i care faggot.
Nathan Brown
Gore films are for trash edglords anyway.
Wyatt Wright
The problem is that everyone and their mother has ripped off TCM at this point, so it's probably not even possible to get the level of scary the original had anymore.
Mason Adams
Are You just dont know how to appreciate it?
Lincoln Sullivan
Imagine lena headey sitting on your face in character as mama from dredd
Angel Lopez
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre should've never been turned into a franchise. The original film is a nearly perfect horror film that will never ever be topped. Tobe Hooper understood this so he made 2 into a comedy that parodied the original film. He knew you can't capture lightning in a bottle twice.
Landon Moore
no one cares
Logan Sullivan
The original was not about being scary it was about being REAL, not in the sense that this things really happened, but they COULD,
Body horror Homicide Hopelessness Phycological horror A little bit of supernatural horror People are capable many things especially the ones that live outside the law and that's where leatherface comes in
leatherface IS the horror genre
Anthony Cox
Am I the 7 foot hairlet in this fantasy?
Elijah Howard
>A little bit of supernatural horror Wait, what?
Isaiah Davis
It can if you give it the same approach as game of thrones Showing people something new in the sense that humanity is degrading and most are too comfortable They don't realise that they're normal life could suddenly end as roadkill
Ya see leatherface is life it's ugly And what is leatherface and his family? They are life.
That feeling that some people got when they saw the mountain squeeze that one guys head in with his hands in the game of thrones, they had never thought that was even fucking possible. Leatherface is all about that.
Caleb Carter
The grandpa
Hudson Brown
How was he supernatural? It was just a catatonic old man.
Eli Ortiz
>The original was not about being scary it was about being REAL That's what made it scary. My point is that the killer rednecks in the woods thing has been done so damn much that I don't think you could ever capture what made TCM so good ever again.
Aaron Price
not really supernatural, but in the first movie he's 124 years old (137 in the sequel)
Connor Diaz
>Texas Chainsaw >Gore film retard alert
Leo Brooks
Or a vampire/lych they had dug up in the previously mentioned graveyard robbery? He could have just been a device to capture the twisted and perverted feeling of some hillbillies forcing you to give oral to their grotesquely disabled relative.
All I'm saying is that it was pretty specific on how they just made her put her finger in her mouth for him to suck on like that.
Landon Collins
The fuck. Okay I guess it is supernatural.
Brandon Collins
Its the same problem with almost every continuing series.
cinematic Flanderization I guess you could call it? Picture Pirates of the Carribean and how Jack Sparrow went from a supporting comedic relieft/niche to main hero and then the MOST important amazing pirate ever OMG XD.
Leatherface superceded the actual EXPERIENCE of TCM and the later movies mainly turned into slashers. Hell, some are still a step above schlock like Jason goes to Hell or Dream Warriors, but its the same problem of people focusing on the arbitrary figures in movies instead of the core success of each property.
Julian Garcia
Remember when Pinhead became good and then died and they kept making seuels so they had to bring him back again and retcon everything so he could be a Freddy-type villain? Good times.
Josiah Nguyen
All the Texas Chainsaw films are gay, I saw the original and wondered why all the geeks in high school praised it. The only thing I can think of is that the premise was novel at the time of release although I don't really think it's that notable, one thing for sure is that many movies since it came out have done better with it
Carson Garcia
>Pinhead. Another character that was ruined by moronic directors. But in his case he was turned into an edgy villain instead of an amoral being.
Mason Gutierrez
Only an idiot would think it "could" be real, that's just bullshit gimmick "based on real events" that some idiots who can't google nowadays get duped into believing. I read the suppose inspiration for this, it was one guy, he didn't live in Texas, didn't use chainsaws, and was much scarier than leatherface and his family.
>Edgy Chainsaw Massacre is the best thing ever >Reddit spacing Really makes you think
Owen Peterson
Didn't the original director just die? TCM is in the top 3 greatest films ever made, imo, but everything after that isn't worth watching.
Joshua Hughes
Says the /r/the_donald poster.
Alexander Thomas
read his post again before you turn on your autism faucet
Grayson Morgan
>he doesn't like part 2
Justin Evans
See >87976500 It CAN be interesting and watchable and entertaining All you have to do is take game of thrones and shrink it Leatherface is the mountain, not a man but a THING, only good for one thing in his situation, he's also Looney.
And everyone else is either his family, or townsfolk and travelers With maybe 5 supporting characters, and at least 3 specialists for spice to capture the whole hillbilly degenerate backwoods feeling. Throw in some proto industrial music mixed with some lazy honky tonk tunes Add in some old film imagery like in the beginning of the 2003 remake as if it were being reported.
Chase Jackson
Unfortunately yes.
Kayden Fisher
Its sad. But its inevitable. At least there's always the first movie of each to like.
Btw did anyone ever make a found footage version of TCM? I suppose that would be pretty hard to justify since the urgency of being chased / captured couldn't explain a camera.
But the grittiness and panic of it seems like it would have already been done by now.
Alexander Morgan
It be pretty hard to find an actress who's willing to be savagely manhandled in order to capture leatherfaces looney "uncle lester gonna beat me something Savage if he find me with this, I'm gonna hide it" *picks up and drags girl by hair as if she were a raggedy Ann doll* personality.
Elijah Harris
I think one big problem is that they keep shoehorning in sex like other horror movies, while TCM was just about violence which I think unintentionally highlights people's ironic designation of sex as taboo while violence is a ok, especially considering the vegetarian themes (people don't fuck animals)
Andrew Williams
Unironically the best TCM.
Lincoln Watson
Leatherface was never an interesting character. The fact that the Michael Bay-produced reboot movies fixate on him relentlessly show what a stupid talentless kike Bay is.
Isaac Morales
The most honest depiction of leatherface will always be silence of the lambs. No Friday the 13th knock off will ever be honest.
