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.

Amy Nicholson FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) It's very, very, very gory, and only 81 minutes long but feels much longer. Mar 11, 2022 Full Review Mark Kermode Kermode & Mayo's Film Review Hey, less annoying than Halloween Kills...but it doesn't need to exist. Mar 9, 2022 Full Review Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News The original film inspired nightmares; this one makes you giggle and leaves you bored. Rated: 1/4 Feb 25, 2022 Full Review Archi Sengupta LeisureByte.com 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. Rated: 1.5/5 Sep 3, 2024 Full Review Joonatan Itkonen Toisto.net Texas Chainsaw Massacre is so shallow and meaningless that any subtext is impossible. It just wants to get to the killing, and it doesn’t care what it has to do to get there. Rated: 1/5 Jul 4, 2024 Full Review Maxance Vincent InSession Film Texas Chainsaw Massacre completely ruins the original, and any fan of that movie should steer far, far away from its latest installment and hope that the franchise will now stay dead and buried for good.

Kyle T This is the worst Texas chainsaw massacre movie of them all. There is a giant plot hole, how does Leatherface make it back to his mothers house in that short amount of time? Also, we wanted to see the lady who escaped from him, shotgun Leatherface in the face, but instead, she got chainsawed in half. DO NOT WATCH. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/08/24 Full Review tyler s Perfect movie I don't understand the hate the gore was top notch and the twist at the end left my mouth open Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/03/24 Full Review David L Not sure why this movie is getting trashed. To those who are saying they hated it I would suggest giving it another watch. There’s a lot to like here. I think David Blue Garcia did a fine job with the task of making a sequel to (in my opinion) the greatest horror movie ever made. Of course it’s not as good as Hooper’s but it’s a solid movie. Good story, acting, and directing. And it may be comparing apples to oranges but this new TCM is waaaaaay better than the Halloween Ends garbage. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/02/24 Full Review Jason V This is the most uplifting movie ever. I am completely paralyzed & this movie gave me the ability to stand up just so I could turn it off! Worst movie of all time, had to bleach my eyes after. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/01/24 Full Review Brandon C Like watching paint dry Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/26/24 Full Review Stijn B It’s not a bad movie, but I hate the fact that the actors are taking their time with everything, like thinking that they are not in a bad situation at that moment. So not a bad movie, but just ultra stupid acting. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/24/24 Full Review Read all reviews
