The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)

A Below average horror flick

I have never felt so relieved when I saw the credits rolled. Finally the nightmare was over. I can't believe watching this movie would cause me a serious headache. I guess that would happen to someone who hears a nonstop ten-minute scream marathon. Where do I begin (sigh), the movie started slow I mean really slow. If I counted it right, it’s about fifty minutes in when things got a little interesting. So you could say it took that long for me to get interested, because fifty minutes is a freaking long time. But then it hit me, because I knew what I was going into upon deciding to see a movie thirty five years old already. So my overall assessment is that modern audiences such as myself could really find this classic unfit for this age in time. A few decades ago it would have been a scare, but now it's a below average horror flick.
