Tagline: Another legacy begins.

Plot: New to Los Angeles, Nell (Angela Bettis) and Steven Barrow (Brent Roam) rent an apartment in the Lusman Building. Built in the 1940s, this luxurious art deco hotel was a playground for the rich and famous in Hollywood's heyday. Later it fell on bad times…but now the old building is being restored to its former glory.

What no one knows, however, is that the Lusman should never have been tampered with. Renovating the building has brought out a supernatural horror -- someone or something who knows every secret of the place, who can get past any lock. One by one he’s picking off the residents.

Our heroine Nell starts hearing strange noises and noticing things she can't explain. Who is the old man in the laundry room who seems to know pieces of the Lusman's sordid past? Why does she have the sense that someone's watching her?

In the tradition of Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Tobe Hooper creates a terrifying vision of a young woman trapped in a battle with supernatural evil. Similar in tone to both classic Italian horror films and landmark 1970s American movies, The Toolbox Murders takes viewers on a ride that will fuel their nightmares for years to

 External Reviews
external linkA haunted building with lots of half-finished stories and a few too many, er, flaws. 5/10


external linkToolbox is a strong film likely to boost Tobe Hooper back into the top rung of horror directors along with names like Craven, Carpenter, and Romero. 3/5
--Superheidi (Bloody-Disgusting.com)

external linkA decent slasher; deaths were nice and gory, but too far apart. Slow in the first half, but begins to pick up in the second. Worth a check, but don't expect much. 6/10
--FrighT MasteR (UHM)

external linkThe two pictures are basically related in name (and murder weapons) only; this Toolbox Murders not only stands miles and miles above the original, but is well worthy of the classic era of Seventies horror that Tobe Hooper played such a large role in starting. 3.5/5
--Don Kaye (horrorchannel.com)
