What to Know

Critics Consensus

Texas Chainsaw Massacre doesn't skimp on the gore, but Leatherface may have irrevocably lost his ability to terrify.

Audience Says

Texas Chainsaw Massacre is gory, but it isn't very scary -- and it definitely doesn't help that the story hardly makes any sense.

It's very, very, very gory, and only 81 minutes long but feels much longer. Go to Full Review

7/10
It’s gross, hard to watch in parts, extremely gorey, and I didn’t care about any of the characters – meaning it literally checks every single box needed to be a “passable slasher”. Go to Full Review

1.5/5
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2022 is a gnarly movie but is otherwise uninteresting and, in some ways, boring. The cash grab attempt, specifically, is quite blatant. Go to Full Review

Holland W Nov 28 Absolutely awful, bad writing, acting and the list goes on… The gore is descent enough but not enough to sustain this train wreck. Also, why doesn’t Leather Face age? He’s as old( if not older) than Sally Hardesty, it’s a stinker! See more Tyler C. @Tydolla92 Nov 19 Entertaining until it gets increasingly annoying. This continuation of the story proves slightly suspenseful and fun to watch until it sinks in how irrevocably they’ve tarnished the legacy of this story and franchise. The sole survivor of the original, Sally, is honored terribly and the plot choices are ridiculous. Watch it for fun and hate it for the sad, money grabbing production it is. See more Grayson L Nov 14 Good job directors thank you so much for this I just want to say special thanks to ruining the franchise and making me turn off Netflix. See more Ken N Nov 8 Just horrible. To much CGI as well which kills a movie specially a horror film. Sad times we’re in See more ileaniz q Nov 4 I made an account just to express how disappointing and upsetting this was to see, if that doesn't convince you not to watch it, I don't know what will. See more Jet S Nov 1 How in the hell did you all and IMDb give this a higher score than the other movies? It's the worst. Whoever made this never make another movie again. See more Read all reviews
