Decades ago, residents of Newt, Texas, long suspected that the Sawyer family was responsible for the disappearances of many people. When their suspicions finally were confirmed, vigilantes torched the Sawyer compound and killed every member of the family -- or so they thought. Much later, a young woman named Heather (Alexandra Daddario) learns that she has inherited Texas property from an unknown relative, and she is unaware of horrors that await in the mansion's dank cellar.

Critics Consensus

As an ugly and cynical attempt to rebrand Leatherface as horror anti-hero, Texas Chainsaw 3D is a bold move for the franchise.

The trend lately in Hollywood is that the first weekend in January belongs to horror. Unfortunately for us, it's subpar horror.

This new film survives on its formulaic horror mechanics and the powerful image of a chain saw wielded in 3-D.

This is what good horror film moviemaking is all about - story, characters, visual appeal and genuine jump out of your seat terror!

Starts promisingly but soon becomes yet another sub-standard American gorefest, with little or no real body.

...Continuing where the first left off? Good idea. Filling the movie with unlikable characters, stupid plot twists and broken continuity? Terrible idea.

Compared to some of the earlier TCM films, this one is incredible. A perfectly solid horror movie with a very contemporary feel. Plus, that blue shadow is stunning. (Inglês por causa da ia)

Really a dull movie honestly but not the worst of the series. The 3D made the movie unserious and laughable at points. Then to know he won't hurt certain people cause he likes them made me loathe how they made Leatherface. Poor movie

Once again. Great and Weird, Texas Chainsaw 3D is really worth to watch and have fun. One of the best movies if we include The original and The Remake 9.2/10
