Review of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974) by Akshatmahajan — 24 Oct 2020
I went into this movie with high expectations because of its reputation. And had I seen this in 1974 when it was released, those expectations may have been met. But that is not the case.
The plot was good but not detailed. It had so many gaps. The acting was bad especially the last surviving girl who just kept screaming till the movie ended. There was no scene which made any impact except the the scene when we are first introduced to Leatherface. The pace was good and running time was also sufficient. But at this running time they could have easily made a detailed movie, which they didn't.
Overall, I do not understand how this movie became so popular. If I saw it when it first came out my opinion might be different but for now, I didn't like it that much.
