No Buzz: Why Nobody Is Gassed About The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2021 Sequel

from Tutor Reviews · host Romero Tutor

Leatherface always had the insane potential to be one of the horror genre's most imposing and relevant slashers ever... But numerous writers, directors, and sequels clearly had other plans for the crazed cannibal. It sucks too, since he's one of the slashers that was loosely but very closely based on real life serial killer, Ed Gein (the events and crime scene callbacks are spot on at times during the series). So with eight entries total, a shitty mess of continuity and a seesaw of quality overall, someone figured the time has come for a direct sequel to the 1974 classic. Again. We've been here before. But somehow, we're back on that same dirt road that's about to take us to the Sawyer clan once again. And for some reason(s), people aren't as gassed up as the new chainsaw is about to be. So I explain why I think that's so. Enjoy, people.
