Alrighty, here's a new post for the thread.



                                                                                        Leatherface (2022)

Now, this movie is new, coming out on Netflix on 2/18/22, so I won't spoil the whole movie for you, only the first 7 minutes. Seriously, go watch this movie for yourselves.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

(Spoiler Free Review):

This movie is alright as far as modern slasher movies go. It's got amazing practical gore, really good cinematography and is (imo) a fun watch. I would rate this movie a good 6.5/10 which is much higher than what I've seen it rated. As I'm writing this it's rated 33% on Rotten Tomatoes. I guess the "bad" parts are the campy and cringe dialogue, and the dumb character decisions throughout. It's not like the actors did a bad job, it's really good acting by everyone included.


(First 7 Minutes Spoiler Review)

       This movie has an interesting plot for the most part but suffers from the old staple in pretty much all of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre Series, a group of teens/young adults out on their way to a town in Texas when they meet Leatherface. This movie starts off simple, 2 influencers (Dante and Melody "Mel") are traveling to a ghost town called Harlow with Mel's sister (Lila) and Dante's Partner (Ruth) where they plan on selling all of the old buildings to investors/other influencers. They meet a guy at the gas station carrying a handgun in his holster (His name is later revealed to us as Richter) where a little bit of the campy/cringe dialogue is shown. Mel comments to the other's saying "Who has such a small dick they need to walk around with a fucking gun." . She says this loud enough to where the guy hears and it is awkward, but shows the political side these characters have. They drive off and see Richter in his pickup truck speeding around and passed them while blowing smoke infront of them. Then they are stopped by the sheriff and the deputy up ahead who recognize them since Dante/Mel made a social media post about their dream of selling the whole town of Harlow. The sheriff gives them a card so they won't get into trouble and let's the group on their way to Harlow.
