Tagline: After a decade of silence... The buzzz is back!

Plot: A tongue-in-cheek sequel to the 1975 splatter classic. Dennis Hopper stars as a Texas Ranger seeking revenge on the murderous, chainsaw-wielding clan who dismembered several members of his family in the first flick. Body parts and self-referential jokes fly, as the crazed lawman (he's almost as wacked as the villians he's stalking) heads toward the final, blood-soaked showdown.

external linkNot as powerful, scary or impacting as the first, this sucker is no less brilliant. Some people don't like it because of all the comedy, but christ man it's the sickest comedy I've ever seen.


external linkIn the end it's a decent sequel to the first TCM, but it's an overall good watch if you're simply a fan of the series. ... Doesn't live up to the original, but does manage to be fairly entertaining. Worth a check. 7/10

external linkThis first sequel to the gritty original is tongue-in-cheek from the get-go with none of the disturbing realism of the first; but really when you consider it - it is a logical step for the series to take. 2/4

external linkDirector Hooper tries to impress us with big-budget sets and effects, but it was the original's low budget and documentary style that made it such a classic.

external linkThe blood and gore in this movie were fantastic, with heads being spliced in two, faces beaten with hammers, and a plate in Chop-Top's (Bill Mosley) head looking more and more decayed with every passing scene 3.5/5
