The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 Reviews
New York Times
Walter Goodman
No matter how adeptly Chainsaw 2 was put together, it would remain just another exploitation flick for fans who get a tingle from watching blades slash into flesh and innards peep out.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Part 2 has a lot of blood and disembowelment, to be sure, but it doesn't have the terror of the original, the desire to be taken seriously. It's a geek show.
Creative Loafing
Matt Brunson
An entity of evil in the excellent original, Leatherface is transformed into a buffoon in this ham-fisted outing, to the point that Jerry Lewis should have been cast in the role.
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
TCM 2 works because it's a complete original. You never know from minute to minute where it's going to go, and that unpredictability keeps you riveted for every single second.

Eric Melin
But time has been kind to this strange movie, and now it plays like a bizarre satire of 80s excess-kind of like a backwoods version of American Psycho with equal parts gross-out humor and over-the-top acting.
TheFilmFile.com
Dustin Putman
A ripe and wicked horror-comedy, as black as pitch and every bit as violent as naysayers mistakenly accused the first film of being.
7M Pictures
Kevin Carr
Sure, there's a lot more gore and some chainsaw violence paying off for what wasn't seen in its predecessor, but this leaves a lot to be desired when all is said and done
Gone With The Twins
Mike Massie
The chainsaw brood has become bumbling, incompetent, and laughable, focused intently on sudden scenes of intense brutality rather than the careful building of dread.
Lessons of Darkness
Nick Schager
Irresistibly demented.
Nyx Fears
May Leitz
There's something to love about how unapologetically crazy, and unlike the last one, this movie is...it still tries to convey relatable things.
MTV
Charles Webb
Everything is heightened in Chainsaw 2, the gore gorier, the performances, broader, the music synth-ier.
Under the Radar
Austin Trunick
f you like your horror funny and aren't too squeamish -- say, you're a big fan of Re-Animator or ... Evil Dead 2 -- then Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 will be right up your alley.
Cinema Crazed
Felix Vasquez Jr.
Seems intent on mocking the first film, rather than paying respect to it and sewing a new narrative.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
A good deal gorier and more disturbing than the original. Certainly it's far better than the soulless 2003 remake.
Paste Magazine
Mitchell Beaupre
If you don't want your Texas Chainsaw Massacre movies to end with a chainsaw fight, you should get checked out.
eFilmCritic.com
Brian Mckay
The most tedious crapfest I've sat through in a while. Annoying characters who never shut up. Even some amusing moments with Hopper can't save it.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
Nothing says subversive like a good horror film, and Tobe Hooper's The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 is as subversive as they come.
Film Threat
Chris Parcellin
This movie is a great, big mess.
Apollo Guide
Scott Weinberg
More downhome carnage. Not for the weak of heart.
Rob's Movie Vault
Rob Gonsalves
There's a lot of contempt rattling around in "Chainsaw 2," not only for the easy Reagan-era targets of "yuppies" and "businessmen" but for the entertainment we were in 1986 expected to swallow without question.
