One of the Greatest Horror Comedies Ever Made
6 November 2022
This movie is horror comedy gold. It's been criminally underrated and misunderstood. It was intentionally designed to be the tonal and stylistic opposite of the first 'Texas Chainsaw' film. Accepted on its own terms, this movie is near-perfect.

-The sets are massively inventive.

-The performances - particularly Moseley in his career making performance as Choptop - are unforgettable.

-Savini's gore effects are some of his best.

-There are several laugh-out-loud moments, as well as at least one of the best jump scares in horror.

Tobe Hoper set out to make a comedy, and nailed it. Ignore the doubters and enjoy!
