The Texas Chainsaw Mascara?
No, no... The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning. If this is anywhere near as good as the 2003 film then I'll be happy. I know a lot of people hate the 2003 remake (starring Jessica Beil and Jonathan Tucker) but I loved it. Hadn't experienced anything like the feelings I had since The Blair Witch Project (ya know, absolute dread and wanting to crawl into a featus position). Below is the new poster for The Beginning, which is a prequel to the the sequel, which was a sort of remake of the the original but was also a sort of sequel. You follow? It's like discussing all these American remakes of Japanese movies. "The Ring Two is the sequal to the original remake of Ringu, but isn't a remake of the original sequal even though they were both directed by the same man."
...yeah. I know. It's getting (gotten?) quite ridiculous.

This is getting out of hand. I have no desire to witness the birth of Leatherface, I am perfectly fine being left in the dark about that one. He's scarier in his mystery; once you deconstruct him, you kill the freakiness factor.
It's like the treatment of Willy Wonka in the Burton update last year. I had no desire to understand the absurdity of his behavior rooted in some childhood daddy trauma. Lame!
Ditto the origin of the Oompa Loompas.
true, true...
...but then I always come back to the fact that it's a man with a chainsaw chasing around pretty people. And i just can't ignore that.
