The Texas Chain Saw Massacre: 50th Anniversary Ratings & Reviews
- AngusMcNutzJanuary 4, 2025No notes. You know what it is. We do, however, need to start remaking other Tobe Hooper films rather than Texas Chainsaw for the millionth time. Neon or A24 doing Spontaneous Combustion or Lifeforce lol
- carter28822d agoThe Texas Chainsaw Massacre is a fun but definitely overrated movies, the movie was a lot of fun, until it got to the last 30 minutes of the film. The movie has a really generic premise, but I still have a blast with it. Letherface is very creepy in this film, and we get some somewhat good kills, and like I said up until the last 30 minutes of the film, it was a lot of fun. But the ending just didn’t do it for me, it will give you a headache, it’s literally just watching a girl scream and yell for 20 minutes straight, and watching her get tortured, which did not work for me, and the whole family thing I did not care for one bit. So I enjoyed it, and still thought it was good, but not a film I would come back to often.
- Carl WrestnSeptember 5, 2025Screaming and running while trying to hide from a man who’s actively hunting you with a chainsaw is absolute insanity.
- andy bOctober 30, 2025total banger - this is a 5/5 horror film imo and contains little real violence. this is sort of what everyone else who makes horror wishes they could recreate but can't
- SnooedKiwiOctober 26, 2025coooool
- lapeti37October 25, 2025Good movie, but it's not accurate as the Ed Gein real story with the chainsaw.
- Gianni CavuotoOctober 14, 2025Almost as perfect as it gets in Horror films. Gritty, intense and unbelievable. You know the story, you know what's gonna happen yet its horrible. It almost watches like a documentary, and I thing that's what makes it almost more horrifing. It's a go to agian and agian.
- StairwaytothestarsAugust 2, 2025A classic with a chainsaw ripping and people zipping!
- Cynthia Eileen HallOctober 24, 2025Just a comment on the photo of Marilyn Burns and that is not her it's someone entirely different. I rate the film 4 out of 5 stars or 80 out of 100 if I were rating by rotten tomatoes scale. A HORROR MASTERPIECE FOR OVER 50 YEARS NOW!!
- CaleeeebSeptember 9, 2025I love 70’s horror. Especially this one. It looks like it could be filmed by someone there making a documentary. No stupid Hollywood music or effects. Just creepy as fuck!
- Andy Davidson | folknhell.comAugust 18, 2025The daddy of slasher films, and progenitor of a particularly American style of folk horror. It's unrelentingly visceral and deeply shocking, even half a century later. A stone cold classic.
- brycowardJuly 20, 2025I can't imagine what this must have been like to experience in 1974. Watching in 2025, all I can see is the legacy of this movie over the last fifty years. I saw, in TCM, the formula for "hills have eyes", for "hostel", "nightmare on elm Street" and more. The simple story and concept was just so well executed and real in horror. A classic, not to be overlooked.
- diego.574March 14, 2025Boring as hell
- aaravsingh19August 30, 2025Some of the frames were amazing, but yes the movie was...
- Kevin WardJune 30, 2025Ok, yeah, loved this. Completely love the look a the way it’s shot. Anyone heard of this one? 🙈 I have a screener for the upcoming film Chain Reactions screening at Seattle International Film Festival 2025. I started to watch it not realizing it was a somewhat of a retrospective of the impact of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I stopped watching and figured I’d better cross this one off The Shame List before I continue.
