Second watch since about a decade ago. Fucking balls to the wall entertainment with awesome work by Tom Savini! Without a doubt my favorite entry in the franchise behind the original. I don’t think I fully appreciated this my first watch but man I’m glad I decided to revisit. Amazing set pieces, great gore and unforgettable characters sprinkled with genuinely funny moments.
Rating 4/5
Had almost forgotten how crazy and funny it really was, I specially loved Dennis Hopper, who completely owned this movie, and to think he did both this and Blue Velvet both released in 1986, damn, he was in good form back then.
"BRIIIIIIING IIIIIT AAAAAAALL DOOOOOOOWN!"
The one scene, that had me almost on the floor laughing, was the part where he went out to buy himself a big ass chainssaw, and the owner of the store, looks at this madman with huge admiration, and it was just such a hilarious but great part.
Another huge reason to why I love the film, was the beautiful Caroline Williams, and I just fell so hard for her whole charming Texas accent and those long stunning legs of hers. Damn she was fine, and I had absolute no problems with Leatherface also having a thing for her, because who wouldn't?
Tom Savini of course, surely did not do any wrong here either, incredible special effects all the way.
Anyway, it was sure great to get to see it again, after so long and I know, I must get a hold of the original, as I have not watched it since the early 00s, but from what I remember, that tone or style was completely different, and this sequel was just so over-the-top and ridiculous fun, that, well it has to be one of the best horror sequels of the 80s, or so I believe.
