the movie started pretty good. it starts with clips of the first 1974 movie, (because that’s what this movies is a sequel for) and i found those quite enjoyable. when it cut to heather (the main character) i thought “okay, this is going somewhere. we are getting introduced to our main character, her friend, and her boyfriend. then we find out some stuff about heather’s family life (SPOILERS) and she needs to go and check out her grandmas house. (the grandma she had no idea she had) some of her friends decided to come with her and at some point while they are driving to texas they pick up a man (that they HIT with their car??) and apparently he was just okay and they decided to put him in the car and give him a ride. now they get to the house and heather’s lawyer is there and he gives her an very important letter that would tell her about the existence of leatherface, her distant cousin, in the houses basement!!! she didn’t read it, which would turn out to be a very bad decision. now the weird stuff. they are SO many plot holes in this. like it never really explained where her grandmas house came from because in the beginning of the movie it shows a house being burned down and all the family members dying, so where the grandma and this other house came from, i don’t know. forgive me if it explained it in the movie, i guess i missed it. but there is just so many things wrong with this. the man they hit with their car, they just trust him to be alone in heather’s house while they go to the store, and he obviously try’s to rob them and ends up letting leatherface out and he inevitably gets killed by him. and if you watched the movie you know what happens, all her friends die and and heather gets away. there are a lot more plot holes but i won’t explain all of them. heather ALSO gets hit by a car and just gets up less than a minute later at some point in the movie. near the end people are trying to kill leatherface because he is a viscous murder. now sure, maybe they shouldn’t have chosen such a violent route of death for him, (being dragged into a meat grinder) he still deserved it. there is definitely more humane ways though. but heather has to come in and stop it, and of course now he knows that she is his cousin and they go home together. idk what made her think he should live after he killed all of her friends in HER house. the characters are also extremely unlikeable. so no, don’t watch this unless you want to be disappointed. this was really long sorry!! so if you made it this long, thank you ❤️
