Didn’t have time to ask him why he wasted money on a Charles Thomas jersey. Who cares. Riders are in the playoffs and the Eskimos aren’t!

Movie Review: Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning

As far as Texas Chainsaw movies go, this one isn’t much different. There’s lots of sick, twisted, and creepy imagery. There’s a guy abusing the authority a cop’s uniform gives him. There’s a deranged family that has no qualms about killing and eating people. There’s a lunatic with a chainsaw. And there’s a group of teens that gets slaughtered along the way. Pretty much the usual stuff.

What I really liked about this movie, and serves as the reason for the title, is that we get to learn the origins of the characters and the circumstances that lead them to commit the atrocities they did. It starts with the birth of the baby that would grow up and become Leatherface, his first kill, and the domino effect of killings that follows from it.

Worth checking out if you like slashers, or Texas Chainsaw movies in particular.
