| User ReviewKaren DLOVE IT!!!Check out my Photo by Lindsay :) |
| User ReviewTelevisnostic IThis is what brought you silence of the lambs people!! a definite classic! |
| User ReviewKathryn KLoved it! Kane again pulled it off, even though he's about 3 of the original Ed Gein! haha. Still was awesome. Kane needs to get Michael Feifer to do a Ed Kemper movie with him as Kemper since Kemper was so big. |
| User ReviewJoel Cawesome movie. one thing I love about this movie it's based on real events. and I also know somewhat about the real story |
| User ReviewPeter TNow this is the real story about the texas chainsaw massacre |
| User ReviewMichael OVery unique insight of a derange man living with very normal people, I am very surprised he did not sexually assault some of his victims. |
| User ReviewElizabeth TOk, so maybe I'm a sick bitch, but Ed Gein is one of my favourite serial killers, and this film stayed pretty true to his actual crimes. The acting left quite a bit to be desired, but what do you expect from a B movie? Plus I was psyched to see Michael Berryman from the Original "The Hills Have Eyes", even if his role was just a cameo. |
| User Reviewriot gThis was one sick and twisted man. I like horror movies but this gave a whole new meaning cause this was a real person. |
| User ReviewDakota BIt an ok entry in the slasher world but nothing special. |
| User ReviewRocknRoll TVery graphic!!! Even though i had to look away, I liked that i had to....haha I enjoyed the movie; |
