Leatherface (2017)

While I didn't enjoy this film, that doesn't mean you won't. No matter what I say, the people involved in this project did it: they actually made a movie. That's something to be applauded. With that established...

No long-running slasher series can resist telling us what happened before the killer got their favourite weapon, superpower, or iconic mask. These misguided efforts at expanding the characters always disappoint. There are now two prequels in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre series. The first, released in 2006, told us what happened before the 2003 remake. Now, the 1974 Tobe Hooper classic has received the same treatment. This is not a good movie but for what it’s worth, it’s the best of these “slasher origin” movies we’ve ever received. Before I tell you why, what’s this movie about?

In 1955, Verna Sawyer’s sadistic children are taken away from her and sent to a mental institution by Sheriff Hartman (Stephen Dorff), who believes the family is responsible for the death of his daughter. Ten years later, nurse Elizabeth White (Vanessa Grasse) and patients Jackson (Sam Strike) & Bud (Sam Coleman) are taken hostage by Ike (James Bloor) and Clarice (Jessica Madsen) following a riot that sees many patients and staff killed. As they travel the countryside, leaving a trail of violence in their wake, the police close in.

With the children’s names changed upon admission to the Gorman House Youth Reformery, neither the characters nor the audience know which of the three men is Jud Sawyer, the boy who will one day grow up to become Leatherface. Astute viewers can probably deduce who it is, but there’s still a mystery as we watch the events unfold and wonder what will turn them into the killer we know. This uncertainty is what elevates this film past the likes of A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Child, Rob Zombie’s Halloween, 2011’s The Thing, Hannibal Rising and other horror prequels. At least this one has ambition. It wants to tell a new story. In fact, if it weren't for one scene towards the end, you probably wouldn’t know Leatherface is a prequel, and I mean this in a good way.

Directors Julien Maury and Alexandre Bustillo, along with writer Seth M. Sherwood have made a film that stands on its own… except when it doesn’t. In the opening scene, we see a young Jud receive his first chainsaw and you will roll your eyes. Still, it’s a breath of fresh air compared to what we've been subjected to by this series before. As of 2017, there are 8 Texas Chainsaw movies. Most of them simply regurgitate what we’ve seen before. Their stories are so bad they would need at least 4 passes through the ringer to become worthy of viewing… and at the end of the process, you’d just have the original movie so they’re utterly pointless. Revise this story 4 times and who knows? I know it sounds like a backhanded compliment but you don’t understand just how awful some of the TCM movies have been.

So it’s the cream of the crap essentially. I appreciated many things this film does but I still would never call it good. A full moon turns to a quarter moon and then a full moon again within the span of a few minutes. The evil characters are so evil they feel out of place. Everyone else is often too unlikeable for you to care what will happen next. The gore is excessive, certain characters or plot points are introduced and then disappear as if forgotten. Ultimately, by being a prequel to The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, all this movie does is remind you of a better movie you’d rather be watching.

And so, we’ve finally come to the end of the series. What a downhill ride it’s been. If I were to rank them all from worst to best, I’d go #8: Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning. #7: Texas Chainsaw 3D. #6 Texas Chainsaw Massacre III. #5 Texas Chainsaw Massacre IV: The Next Generation. #4 Texas Chainsaw Massacre II. #3 Leatherface (not too bad, eh? Though this mostly speaks to the inhumane wretchedness of the other movies rather than this one’s quality). #2 The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003) and #1 - of course - the original. Now, let’s hope we can finally put the series to rest on this “high note”. (On Blu-ray, May 31, 2019)

Recommend me a horror movie, but make it as old as possible or as a horror-comedy (I'll take anything)

Ohhh horror movies my beloved <3 *watches half of them behind fingers*

About older ones, I wouldn't go before 70's or even 80's. Psycho (1964) yes, but it's more of a classic than "best horror ever". So:

The Exorcist (1973) - girls gets possessed by a demon and priests are trying to exorcise her. It has some chilly scenes, they still ring in my mind (like backwards spider climb down stairs :<); simple movie yet very very effective and scary. I read somewhere that when it came out in cinema almost 50 years ago some people were running out of cinema crying and screaming mid movie. So yep, defo worth checking imo.

Halloween (1978), A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) and Friday the 13th (1980) - these are all classic slasher movies; it's when you have a serial killer/slasher chasing down people for whatever reason. There are countless spin-offs and remakes of all 3 series but those are original movies. It's more adrenaline pumping and intriguing than scary imo, but are definitely worth the watch. At least one of them.

The Blair Witch Project (1999) - i think this is first found footage horror movie. Basically group of friends goes to woods to search for evidence of Witch from Blair; all while filming their experience. I suggest you see a trailer before deciding bc found footage horror is either hit or miss to people; subjective taste really. Whole movie has creepy and uncanny atmosphere, which is only amplified by ambiguity because there's no clear cut explanation to some things in a movie; watchers are left in the dark as to what really is happening. Also ending is top notch, one of most iconic endings in horror movies imo.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) - now, this is another slasher but it's way way more bizarre and macabre than slasher i've mentioned before. Basically a deranged cannibal family which lures in hitchhikers. Very sinister and unique despite sounding like cliche. It's the little details and atmosphere of total sense of wrongness and deranged-ness in the movie that makes it special. Also, ending scene sequence is A+.

The Ring (2002) (American version) and Ringu (1998) (Japanese) - okay, it's not that old but you've probably heard of this movie. You watch the tape, get a phone call telling you you'll die in 7 days. Now, to me not only is this movie scary af, but also depressing since your life is put on countdown and you're reflecting on all things you wish you could have done different and that you've missed. Basically reminds us of fleeting nature of human's life and how easily it can snap. Also, American/European/Australian horrors are one thing (Australian ones are rly good! Babadook and Lake Mungo are defo worth the check), Asian horror is whole different thing altogether - I watched a Thai horror movie when i was 14 and it still sends chills down my spine when i remember it; probably scariest shit i've seen al my life (Shutter 2004 -Thai version); watch at your own risk rly, and i don't say that lightly :<

As for comedy horror, rec either "Scary movies" since it's a parody of horror genre or movies that suck so damn much that they're funny af. In latter case i rec sharknado (tornado + sharks - yea ik), or piranha 3D - my fave scene is when girl went skinny dipping, baby piranhas got stuck in her, ya know. Then she had sex with some guy and in the middle of it piranha bit his dick off.... yes, that's an actual scene.

#I should add more classics but i feel this is enough for now? also i haven't watched all the classics such as IT or Carrier #thanks for ask!#horror movies #horror

Your horror film opinions, spill them.

so children today we’re going to talk about the use of gore in the horror genre of film & why it should be credited as one of the main reasons for the decline in quality of horror movies in the 2000s-to-early-2010s 🐱🔪

it’s often debated that horror movies were at their peak in the 70s & i can def see why, but i think a notable reason as to why that would be is that audiences weren’t as used to seeing more graphic stuff thats become more expected of the genre nowadays. one of my personal ideas i consider when discussing horror is that theres a split between the concept of the media itself (story, ideas, tone, the actual driving force behind a movie) & the overall use of blood/gore & other carnal oddities. the best way i find to describe this concept in practice is to use the first two texas chainsaw movies, both are enjoyable movies but are notably very different from each other in that they tip these scales in complete opposite directions from each other (the first being very realist & darker in tone while also not actually being very graphic, whereas the second is MUCH bloodier overall but also going for a much more dark-comedy type experience).

with this idea in mind, looking back at the 70s being considered horror’s golden age is a lot more understandable, since horror movies back then couldn’t rely on graphic gore to find their audiences due to much harsher content laws surrounding it (hell re-animator in the 80s was literally made to be as graphic as possible on purpose & is STILL much tamer gore-wise than most modern horrors), thus would’ve had to really push their core film concepts in order to achieve notability. TCM1 again is the perfect example of this as it’s horror & overall influence on the genre as a whole is very much based on the dread & helplessness captured in the movie over actual graphic content, yet is considered one of the most shocking films of that time period. Alien, while MUCH heavier on gore, is another example as its horror is based on isolation & the unknown, with it’s graphic scenes being present to aid those themes instead of just being there for shock.

here’s where the 2000s become relevant, as horror around that era became almost ALL shock. it’s where you have stuff like the saw series & wrong turn & all those saw-inspired teen horrors that ppl don’t remember, as well as a shitload of remakes & reboots & all that. i dont know for sure what started it exactly, but the overall balance of concept vs carnality suddenly dipped very much into the latter territory with not much going into the former. (saw being listed here might seem like kind of like im gonna be like TORTURE PORN BAD & thats not what im trying to get at here, especially with the series being as iconic as it is. the issue is that no one who’s a fan of that series actually takes it seriously with the overall plot being what it is & thus why it fits here lmao)

the remakes that came out around then are also a prime example (& even main talking point) of the content vs carnage scale. the 2003 TCM reboot is one that i could cite here as well as the black christmas remakes, but a much better & less-considered example would be the difference between the original 1981 version of My Bloody Valentine (a film that was HEAVILY censored upon release & only started getting its cut content restored over 20yrs later) & it’s 2009 remake MBV 3D. the ‘81 version being as gutted as it was back during release with a lot of it’s main kill scenes being cut completely being turned into a movie where the gore is in 3D BABEY!!!! with pretty much nothing going for it outside of that with the story being as nonsense as it is pretty much sets both movies apart as being night & day in terms of the quality of horror during both eras.

considering this though, i could also argue that this is also a big reason why horror films recently have seen a steady incline in quality, since a lot of more recent films in the genre put a big focus on original ideas & concepts, as well as utilizing graphic content to help drive those concepts along instead of just arbitrarily being there. even the aforementioned saw series seems to be trying new things with spiral from what ive heard (cant confirm since i haven’t seen it myself & it’s not a series i particularly rush to see myself but yget it lmao).

so yea basically what im sayin is gore def has its place in horror but it shouldn’t be like, the only thing going for it for a movie to still be enjoyable ya kno! da end ty for reading xoxoxo

#it’s 5am idk if this makes sense but whatevs here u go LMAO #kitty says stuff #yall mind if i uuuuuuuhhhhhhh Write A Fuckin Essay Outta Nowhere

Thoughts on Rob Zombies Halloween remake as it's watched (spoilers!)

Also, theres like, swearing and I thirst a lot.

very hard to get past the first 3-4 minutes, took me legit 5 tries because I couldn't stand Myers family. 😔

Grown Michael HOT. 🥵🔥Really digging that orange mask.

Don't wanna sound like a monster but it's been really hard to care about these deaths except like Danny Trejos. Like dang, these are some EVIL rednecks!

Dr. Loomis HOT, glad they took advantage of Malcolm McDowell's beautiful blue eyes for closeups.

You really can't go wrong with Ken Foree, can you? He's hilarious in this.

oh he's dead.

Not really liking this Laurie so far, but I've only seen like a minute of her so there's plenty of time to turn it around. she looks younger than Jamie Lee Curtis did in the original, but from what I've seen of yearbooks people just looked older back then for some reason.

The armless skeleton decoration cracked me up

Rob Zombie is really good at writing young kids, Tommy and young Michael both sounded a lot like how real kids talk. Dude has missed his true calling writing a kids show.

not gonna lie, I know he needed the iconic mask but I sure wouldn't have minded if he wore that orange one more.

DANIELLE HARRIS? OH HELL YEAH!

I want a spin-off of Udo Kier, Clint Howard, and Malcolm McDowell just chewing the scenery together.

Lmao I love Laurie and her friends talking shit to Michael, that was funny.

Always kinda lowkey thought Brad Dourif was hot. I blame One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest.

I love Lauries coat. I want it.

That skeleton figure continues to delight.

Loving all these cameos!

One thing I love about Rob Zombie movies is the dude legit has great taste in music and a good eye for interesting aesthetic. This movie really nails the autumn feel.

Oh shit one of the jump scares got me!

Idk what it is about this Michael Myers but I wanna lick that dirty mask (and then die from my latex allergy).

Tommy Doyle has some damn good skeleton makeup, kid looks badass!

Every scene with Loomis is a treasure

Brad Douriff too, these dudes are KILLIN IT!

The Strode's answering machine message is charmingly dorky.

That's a really weird way to deal with finding a baby at a crime scene isn't it? I don't know, I'm not a cop.

Rob Zombie is really good at making tense scenes.

MICHAEL MYERS BUSTIN THROUGH

Michael carrying Laurie like that got me like “god I wish that was me”. I really shouldn’t watch slasher movies while thirsty.

Aw this part where he’s showing Laurie the photo is kinda sweet.

Man I just want one movie where the final girl joins the villain and it isn’t really gross and cheesy like in Texas Chainsaw 3D.

Oh she stabbed him. I get he’s evil but dang girl, dude was opening up to ya. Didn’t have to open him up too lol pretty badass tho, can’t lie.

How’d he fit all that hair under his mask anyway? Makes me wanna buy one and see how much hair I could fit in it, but the latex would fuck me up.

Myers family had a really nice pool.

I want to cuddle up close to Loomis too while he tells me it’s alright.

OH JESUS CHRIST WHAT THE HELL- lmao Loomis that’s such a weird thing to say there

Laurie is REALLY good at hiding. Like dang girl you need to enter competitive hide and seek or something.

Michael’s big and hot but ngl I kinda want Laurie to shoot him at least once because I don’t like how he’s just smashing up this house. I don’t care if it’s old and falling apart anyway, you’re ruining the aesthetic.

Just pictured Billy Lenz falling out of the attic on Michael and laughed so hard I snorted.

Man this Laurie went through HELL, like all Lauries have but her face looks ROUGH, like I can barely see it through the blood. Real badass though!

Not a big fan of the ending, too abrupt, but overall it’s MUCH better than I thought it’d be, once it got going it REALLY got going. Plus I want big giant like 6’7” Michael to stomp on my 5’ self. Not my favorite horror remake, but it’s certainly not the worst and not nearly as bad as I used to guess. Overall, very glad I watched it!

#halloween #rz halloween #michael myers #please don't judge my thought process too harshly I was thirsting hard and my brain only works at half power then #Lite Work
