Movie Reviews

Slant Magazine - 10/10 by Eric HendersonWhat separates Texas Chainsaw Massacre from its predecessors is its anarchic, cynical hysteria—its bizarre and dark-as-hell gallows humor.
The A.V. Club - 10/10 by Scott TobiasThe film never loses its intensity from the first moment Leatherface's sledgehammer drops. It's horror without a safety net: Survival isn't guaranteed for anyone, heroism and struggle are often futile, and as the old adage says, you can never come home again.
Empire - 10/10 by Kim NewmanThe film has outstanding sound effects, art direction and editing, and a clutch of effective, if necessarily, one-note performances.
Portland Oregonian - 10/10 by Stan HallTobe Hooper's 1974 masterpiece took the slasher flick to a freakier, nastier place and even today has the ability to mess with one's mind. Artfully documentarylike and shot under conditions that produced genuinely traumatized performances, the original "Massacre" eschews cheap thrills and attacks the psyche.
Empire - 10/10 by William ThomasThe most purely horrifying horror movie ever made.
The Independent - 10/10 by Sophie MorrisDirector Tobe Hooper trapped a suffocating depravity in TCSM that film-makers have struggled to copy ever since.
Slate - 10/10 by Bryan CurtisOne of the most relentless scare pictures ever made.
Austin Chronicle - 9/10 by Mike EmeryHooper's vision is horrid yet engrossing... But the worst part about this vision is that despite its sensational aspects, it never seems too far from what could be the truth.
The Guardian - 8/10 by Derek MalcolmWhile nobody could seriously call it a work of art, it was in my opinion a quite formidable piece of directorial artifice, a horror comic brought to the screen with frenetic energy and life.
BBC - 8/10 by Tom CoatesLike any decent slasher movie, there's something unsettling about The Texas Chainsaw Massacre that goes beyond the blood and gore. [4 star rating for DVD only]
