Texas Chainsaw Massacre is back with a new film that is streaming now on Netflix.
In 1974, “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre” emerged as one of the most influential slasher movies of all time, and Leatherface entered the pantheon of horror villain greats. After the whopping success of Tobe Hooper’s original, seven films have continued its legacy of haunted houses, cannibal families, and yes, lots of chainsaws. Feb.
Wilson Chapman editorThe COVID-19 pandemic happened at an inconvenient time for Elsie Fisher’s career. The teen actor, who has been working professionally since she was five, had her breakthrough in 2018 as the lead in Bo Burnham’s hilarious and squirm-inducing “Eighth Grade.” A stint on season two of Hulu’s “Castle Rock” as the daughter of “Misery” villain Annie Wilkes followed, along with a voice role in the 2019 “Addams Family” adaptation. But just as she was lining up new projects for herself, quarantine happened, putting most of her plans on indefinite hold.Now, Fisher is making her belated return to film acting with “Texas Chainsaw Massacre,” the latest entry in the iconic slasher series and a direct sequel to the 1974 original.
Nearly 50 years after the original was released, Netflix is ready for a whole new generation to discover “Texas Chainsaw Massacre,” with a new sequel arriving today. And on this episode of The Playlist Podcast, filmmaker David Blue Garcia joins to talk about the latest entry in the history of ‘Chainsaw’ films.

A “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” movie made for 2022 is a low-expectation enterprise. Is it set in Texas? Is there a massacre? How about a chainsaw? Check the boxes, and off you go.
Netflix’s new “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” on my TV in broad daylight, with sunlight streaming through the windows and the comforting din of traffic below, and with the remote in my hand throughout, ready to hit “pause” to delay the really bad stuff.But things dragged and I got complacent, and sure enough, that pause button was too far away when I really needed it — a truly shocking moment I did not see coming. I won’t reveal when this moment arrives, but if your plan is to be saved by your own pause button, well, good luck!Despite that admirably executed shocker of a scene, though, the question does arise not long into this, the 10th movie in the “Chainsaw” oeuvre: Did we really need another? And sadly, given the lack of imagination, creativity or even basic attention to logic in a perfunctory and downright silly script, the answer seems a resounding “Nope.”Unless you just want to see a lot of chainsaw killing.
When I think of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, gentrification, social media, and capitalism are not the words that come to mind. However, director David Blue Garcia and screenplay scribe Chris Thomas Delvin decided to bring all of these elements together to create the first entry on my worst of the year list.

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film CriticI’m all for bad horror movies with short running times. (It lessens the pain.) And there are classics of horror cinema that are notably compact, like the 1931 “Frankenstein,” with a twisty tumultuous plot that plays out in just 71 minutes, or the original 1974 version of “The Texas Chain Saw Massacre,” which achieved its slow-burn descent into the abyss in just 83 minutes.But the new, garishly crude, bluntly overlit, what-you-saw-is-what-you-get “Texas Chainsaw Massacre,” which in case you’re counting is the eighth “Chainsaw” movie since the original (you‘d need a serious flowchart to diagram where the sequels meet the reboots meet the origin stories meet the what-the-hell-let’s-just-do-this-again whatevers), achieves a running time of 82 minutes only because there simply isn’t much to it.
Jazz Tangcay Artisans EditorWayne Bell’s score for Tobe Hooper’s 1974 film “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre” is in a word unsettling. Bell and Hooper worked together to conjure up aural elements that mix creepy sound effects with a synth-heavy staccato married with a keyboard that brings the chainsaw to life.For Leatherface’s 2022 reboot, Colin Stetson came on board to craft an equally unnerving environment as the slasher returns.
XXXTentacion, titled Look At Me!, is set to make its premiere at this year’s SXSW festival.The film — directed by Sabaah Folayan and produced by FADER Films — was announced earlier this month. It follows the controversial career of XXXTentacion (AKA Jahseh Onfroy), a troubled teenager who left a lasting influence on the SoundCloud rap genre.“Look at Me! explores how Florida teenager Jahseh Onfroy became SoundCloud rapper XXXTENTACION, one of the most streamed artists on the planet,” reads the film’s synopsis.“Through frank commentary from family, friends and romantic partners, and unseen archival footage, director Sabaah Folayan offers a sensitive portrayal of an artist whose acts of violence, raw musical talent and open struggles with mental health left an indelible mark on his generation before his death at the age of 20.”The documentary will debut at the film festival segment of SXSW, which takes place in Austin, Texas, from March 11 to March 20.
