Since it was shot on 16mm reversal, this is always going to be a dodgy title with interesting color saturation and blown-out whites and some deep dark black levels that borderline on crush. Running side by side, even ripping the discs to do a video comparison yielded no discernible difference - which isn’t bad at all considering that Turbine Medien disc was terrific.

Numerous remakes, sequels, ripoffs, and silly Netflix legacy requels can’t surpass or even come close to matching what Tobe Hooper and Kim Henkel cooked up for this gnarly gritty feature. Conveniently enough the same long week off work I’d watch this film, I’d also take a crack at The Last House on the Left and I Spit on Your Grave. Hell, ashamed to admit it but my first introduction to Leatherface was Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation! I hadn’t seen a horror movie with some guts to it. ![]() Up to that point I’d just seen simple run-of-the-mill slasher sequels. This was one of the first of very few horror films that actually deeply disturbed me when I saw it. Enois Duarte’s reviews stand for this film.īut for a quick two cents of my own, I dearly love this movie.
