Saw the two first Texas Chainsaw Massacre films. I really wanted to watch the second one, but it had been such a long time since I saw the first so I gave them both a spin. The first is definetly a classic, creepy and realistic .. Even though it's just a bit too sadistic for my tastes, you know you're watching classic as the movie's running.
The second movie was a goofy 80s mess of a film. Good lord .. It had entertainment value, but is far from a quality flick like the first. Worst was Leatherface who had changed from being a genuinely scary character in the first to some zany, misunderstood retard with a good streak. Chop Top was annoying throughout. The family that was creepy in the first was just silly in this one.
Still, glad I watched it as it was sort of entertaining and I felt it was just one of those movies you should see if you consider yourself at least part horror-buff. Now I have to decide on whether or not I think the third movie is gonna be worth it.
