The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 Movie Review

Director Tobe Hooper, who made the first The Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie, returns with this long awaited sequel to the 1974 horror movie classic.

Spoiler alert:  More killing from Leatherface and his family happen in this movie.

Dennis Hopper plays a Texas Ranger bent on seeking revenge on the Sawyer family, consisting of Leatherface, Chop-Top (played by Bill Mosely), Cook (played by James Siedow, who is the one returning cast member from the first movie), and Grandpa.  A radio DJ is also involved in helping Hopper.

The first movie is much more a real scary thriller but with a documentary feel to it.

This movie is still wild, but it’s not meant to be taken seriously.

As grotesque as it gets at times, it’s just a fun horror movie, I think.

If you like the first movie, you should like this one.  Maybe more so, who knows.

    • Haha. I sometimes have nightmares, but I don't think it's because of these movies. I still don't understand why I like these movies now, but I do. I look forward to seeing more of them.
