i just watched "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre The Beginning" which is the newer one commin out in a couple weeks.... and thats pretty much along the lines of SAW3 aswell... its definitely alot more action and killings then the first one!

wat freaks me out bout the Texas chainsaw massacre isnt the movie but the fact that its a true story and apparently he was never caught.

It's not a true story at all.

The "Leatherface" character was inspired by a guy called Ed Gein.

Ed made a habit of luring women and killing them, then treating the skin and wearing it. He was caught in 1957 after a local shop keeper went missing and spent the rest of his life in prison. He died in 1984.

He was a fucked up guy, the 'wearing skin' stuff is the only thing that rings true from the 'Chainsaw' flicks mate

ah ok. i thought i read on the cover was true story. must of read it wrong.

I was under the impression it was based on a tru story as well.

The cover of the DVD will tell you it's a true story, there's no law against bullshit in movies

**edit: On the 'true story' thing, they will say 'inspired by a true story', and that's correct as far as the bloke wears peoples skin. That's where the 'true' part ends. No chainsaws involved, no family of canibals, etc...

There's a few movies out there that cover Ed Gein, they don't make terrible watching.

Other gore movies:
So far today I've suffered through 'Death Tunnel' and 'Feast'.

Death Tunnel is about as much fun as taking a savage beating to the balls with a sock full of nails. If you have a choice between a smack in the teeth and watching this movie, take the smack in the teeth.

Feast is OK, nothing spectacular. Wouldn't go out of my way to see it again, but after 'Death Tunnel', anything looks good.
