'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre' is a 2003 Remake based on the 1974 Original & based on the true events & inspired by a true story that happen on August 20th 1973, where police were dispatched to the remote farmhouse of Thomas Hewitt, a former head-skinner at a local slaughterhouse in Travis County, Texas. What they found within the confines of his cryptic residence was the butchered remains of 33 victims, a chilling discovery that shocked and horrified a nation in what many still call the most gruesome mass murder case of all time. At this very day after watching this movie Thomas Hewitt still scares me today as nobody ever find him & he could be still alive in his 50's, 60's or in his 70's anywhere, which that really haunts me just think about & that the case has never been closed.

The Movie its self is a very decent remake (even know I still need to see the Original, which looks so good), The Movie was slow pacing, but I love the really information at the begging as an intro & at the end when you get to see the real leather face for a few seconds but they slow it down for us to see the only image of Thomas Hewitt & which I find to be the most scariest fact & information of The Texas Chainsaw Massacres (also it was really freaky when he was wearing faces of some of the victims he choice to do that).

The storyline/plot is pretty good, as some points in the film are boring but then other get you draw in & I really like true & real facts film that happen in history of life's (e.g. like Titanic, United 93, World Trade Centre & other more like that) that becomes into movie & you get a glimpse of what people think would have happen & put into a movie, which I like those ideas and making happen or look really. This Movie always interreges me because of how it happen & 33 people died & Imaged that one survivor & told the polices & is one of the most notorious mass murders case of all time in Texas & in the nation of USA & is still an open case for the past 37 years of the year 2010.

It's got an excellent amount of gore, violence, scares, body counts & information about the true events on Thomas Hewitt AKA "Leather Face" which he is the person that would horrify me if I did met him in that time, as for the acting by Jessica Biel, Jonathan Tucker, Erica Leerhsen, , Eric Balfour, David Dorfman, R. Lee Ermey were all prefect as I particularly praised R. Lee Ermey as the seconded creepiest & maddest person in the movie (to me) and the directors by Marcus Nispel was average for me as felt he did capture leather face but not neither or not a neither scares but is stranded directors by Marcus Nispel.

(Now I know alot of people are going to hate this review, which I am sorry but everyone has the own opinion on what they like or dislike about a movie, as I don't have much of a probable with a remake, even know I love the original more always will do & that if they make them to quickly it just piss me off and am different differently going to see the original 1974 The Texas Chainsaw Massacre as soon as I can sooner rather than letter, but I can't soo many I want to see its just when the right time to see it I will do.).
