Igor D @RT91167160 3d Best remake of the 2000s!!! It deserves a better rating. See more Kirstie W @KLoves 4d It’s a good horror. It’s not amazing nor is it bad. See more Dave K @BilboBagsy Jul 3 The set designs are grotesque. The wide shots of the house are one of the most foreboding shots of a property I've ever seen in a film. Its grey and black stained walls are aged by time and the colour grading choices of the film give a greyscale effect that gives every scene an extremely grim atmosphere, it really stands out as a place you do not want to visit. Inside the house is even worse. You can really tell the set design was influenced by Ed Gien’s house. Farm animals and their droppings litter the rooms floors, bottles and mason jars of fluids containing unrecognisable but fleshy looking items are piled on shelves and desks. The Characters are truly cruel, unhinged and constantly make you feel so unsafe. They have those sort of dark and twisted southern american personas that are completely psychotic. Every member of the family seems completely indifferent to the grotesque violence that surrounds them. Scared me for weeks after watching it as a kid. A well done remake. 8 / 10 See more Shadow X @RT22770527 Jun 28 Better than the original in my opinion for my personal watch experience but isn’t quite as well made and scary. It has more gore and shock value but it doesn’t go too extreme and its scares aren’t really intense. See more Pizza G. @concrete_booger739 Jun 12 Gorier than the original but does not succeed it. This remake is still good but needs some improvements. See more Benjamin W. @Code70 May 21 A surprisingly solid and effective remake of the horror classic. Honestly, why do so many people hate this? No, it’s not nearly as influential to the genre as the original, and it doesn’t boast the brilliant Tobe Hooper direction, and as effective underlying subtext. But for a remake 30 years later, I feel like it did a good job. It’s a lot gorier and more violent than the original, which admittedly takes the peculiar nature of the original away, but adds more for gore hounds to feast on, and it’s well-made with genuinely effective thrills, and probably the most terrifying Leatherface we’ve ever gotten. I also liked most of the cast, and thought they did a pretty good job for what they were given. It’s not as iconic or groundbreaking as the original, and can’t live up to it overall, but for a modern remake of this story, I think they mostly pulled it off, and it’s quite effective in its own way.
