Rent The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 (1986)


From the director of the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre, this ghastly and hilarious sequel descends into your deepest, darkest fears as a whacked-out lawman goes after human meat-cutters with his own high-octane chainsaws in a horrific showdown with legendary Leatherface and his entire cannibalistic family.

For 14 years, former Texas Ranger Lefty Enright (Oscar nominee Dennis Hopper, Hoosiers) has been obsessed with finding the psychotic mass-murderers who killed his brothers children. And today hes in luck. A tough as nails late-night disc jockey (Caroline Williams - Days Of Thunder) has caught the ghouls on tape in the act of slicing and dicing a couple of fun-loving rich kids. When she volunteers to help, Lefty persuades her to play the tape on-air to lure the maniacs out of hiding. But what she doesnt know is that shes the only witness to this diabolical familys butchery who hasnt been carved up for somebodys supper... just yet!

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 review by Shatner's Bassoon

An unremarkable sequel
(0) of (0) members found this review helpful.
The original 1974 Texas Chainsaw Massacre was a horror classic for many reasons. The clever use of implied violence and psychological terror were far more shocking than actually showing the graphic acts would have been. For this follow up, Tobe Hooper spoils his original 'less is more' formula by going over the top with gore and parody. The problem is that that the gory special effects are just not believable and the humour is way over the top. On the positive side, a totally psychotic performance by Bill Moseley as the music loving, wig wearing 'Chop Top' is the perfect accomplice for 'Leatherface'. Overall, there are certainly worse horror films than this one, but compared to the 1974 original, 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2' is short on the fright factor and plays more for laughs than terror.
