As for Texas Chainsaw, I haven't seen it and probably never will (at least I have no immediate plans to). I did rather enjoy the 2003 remake though.

U summed up perfectly how I feel about it myself.

Thank God you did.

I did enjoy Texas Chainsaw but i suspect it is actually shite.

I haven't see Texas Chainsaw, but I do quite like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2. As has been said, TCM 2 is not as good as the original film but it's enjoyable in an over-the-top way. Does anyone know when Arrow plan to release the regular BD edition of TCM 2? All I have at present is the MGM R1 special edition DVD.

Texas Chainsaw 3D was just offensively bad. Hated every wretched second of it.

I do enjoy TCM2 although it's not a patch on the original which is arguably my favourite horror film of all time. Love the Kim Newman quote (paraphrased) "Not only does Texas Chainsaw 2 not look like it was directed by the same person as the first film, it doesn't even look like it was directed by someone who even saw the first film!"

I wouldn't have thought it would be anytime soon, it was "limited" to 10,000 which is a hefty amount for something that is popular nevermind something like TCM2.
