definetly an awsome movie. I do think it gets credit for some stuff that it shouldnt (last house on the left gets over shadowed by this movie imo)

TCM was good, at least the first one was. Except for the fact that the original was kinda cheesy. I must say I did like seeing the guy in the wheel chair get killed, I missed that in the new one.

With both TCM, each has both it's ups-and-downs. The original was directed by Tobe Hooper, a genius of his time. The house was much scarier with the addition of the furniture made out of human bones. However, the editing was terrible. Also the movie just stops. She is in the back of the truck, and the film simply cuts to the credits. The family was much more enjoyable in this one, and it made sense for the sequel. In the new version, the film quality itself was much better obviously up to date film equipment. However, there was no furniture of bones. The family was simply created with no recognition of the brother in the opening. The action and the characters were much more enjoyable, with the absence of the boy in the wheel-chair. The biggest problem with the new version was the fact that they had Leatherface takes off his mask revealing a deformed face.

In the end, both are good and bad. I personally enjoyed the new version much more, but still appreciate the original for what it was for the time it was made.

I rented it a couple of years ago, really exited to see it. I heard people had fainted and that it was the most desturbing movie with the hookscene and so on. But ofcourse they had cut away thet scene along with some other "too" desturbing scenes. Anyway, I'd really like to see the uncut version. Stupid cencur.

they made a censored version. If you rent it today youd probably never even be able to find the censored version not that youd want to

I love the original its the best i also like number 4 too

TCM is one of the subgenre's of Horror..Slasher Films.
One doesn't have to like this type of film to be a fan of Horror.

Honestly its just not one of my favorite Horror movies since i perfer subtly tension building and suspence in my horror or Outright Fantastical horror.

I would agree that TCM is one of the most significant Slasher films of all time Up there with Friday the 13th and Halloween and would never deny its historical significance.

But if you don't like slasher films it certainly doesn't mean your not a fan of the horror genre.

Sally and, even moreso in my opinion, Franklin were memorable characters. After the first time I saw this movie, I was on my way back home and I saw a man in a wheelchair on the side of the road, and I thought to myself "Hey! It's Franklin!" And to this day, that character is still one of the reasons we love to watch TCM. I think the remake was lacking because they didn't have a character quite like him.

Obviously this is my favorite horror film. I think one thing that makes this film great is how low budget and bad the editing is. Also, the unknown actors make the whole thing believable. I couldn't care less if Mary Camden was slaughtered by Leatherface, but Sally was a different story entirely.

Movies like this are my favorite to watch - 70's low budget thrillers like TCM, The Hills Have Eyes, The Last House on the Left, Halloween... They're classics.

It's KICKASS one of my fave movies
