Johnny Recommends THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE 2 To Watch This Summer

TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE 2 (1986)

Summerization: The chainsaw family is back and dubbed the Sawyers. Leatherface and the gang return for a fun summer of killing, cooking and eating. But watch out, because after Dennis Hopper shows up and uses local radio DJ, Stretch, to stur them from hiding, there’s not a damn person who can stop the cocaine fueled madness. It walks the fine like of dark comedy and light horror movie. And very grotesque.

Why It's Awesome: Dennis Hopper, Bill Moseley and the guy who plays the cook Drayton Sawyer make it above and beyond every other sequel and remake to the original. There’s moments of intentional hilarity. Chainsaws go through heads and stomachs. There’s turkey carver action, repeated hammer shots to the head, razorblade slicing, a chili cook off, old fashion Texas justice, dueling chainsaws, walls filled with human remains and one hand grenade. If you do it right, one is all you need.

Quote: "No, but... but yeah, but...woooa."

Best Time To Watch: Whenever you’re in Texas. Before a cookout. Any time lots of meat is being served. Whenever the date is at the beginning.

Quality: 9 outta 10 times, it’s not a hard peppercorn.
