Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III
He Puts the Teeth In Terror
A pair of college students driving coast to coast are lured off the main highway and on to a deserted Texas road. Here they are stalked by the menacing Leatherface and his demented family...a bizarre cannibalistic clan with blood on their hands and a feast on their minds. Their only chance for escape is a survivalist with enough firepower to blast Leatherface and the rest of the grizzly predators to hell. A depraved shocker of intense terror from the gruesome beginning to the bloody finish.

What made the first for me so great was acting from the lead actress and the disturbing ideas presented so well. The ideas weren't over done or blatant, but more hinted at so your mind could expand on them and you could scare yourself.
This is like the same film over again, only the lead actress isn't nearly as good and the dark concepts are displayed in fuller detail, so that fear of the unknown is gone. As such, what made the first scary and interesting isn't there anymore.
None the less, besides for some bad acting here and there, the film is still fun. It's kind of something you can just sit back with and enjoy after a long day.
A fitting add on to the series? Not really, but a pretty good movie, sure.Old school killer - midnight_flash
This is obvously a old horror movie. Do not rent this if you're looking to actaully be scared or are looking to be enthralled by crazy special effects. This is good for kicking back and enjoying a good ol killer story about a deranged family who loves tearing people apart. Rent it if you like 80's horror flicks.Better than 2, but still not great - CJG-
Ok...I kind of liked this better than the 2nd one, but it still wasn't too great. Leatherface looks really cheesy and the whole thing is just a big mess. The story is nothing new...two couples traveling through Texas get lost and encounter the psychotic cannibal Sawyer family headed by Leatherface. There are new members to the family, who are more annoying than scary. Ken Foree is pretty good, but everybody else is only ok. There are so many alternate versions, deleted scenes, cut and uncut versions, different footage...that there could be like 10 different versions of this movie. Uneven...sloppy...gory, not a very good film but worth a watch or two.
