Comments: Well, I have no idea who Leatherface's new family is, or why they also have a Grandpa who is dead and decrepit, but other than that, Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III is a passable film. It certainly doesn't live up to the original, but there's a few awesome scenes that make it worthwhile. Some of the dialogue is laughable (actually, much of it is), but with Ken Foree running around kicking ass, there's no need for believable lines. The worst part of the film is the spoken intro, which makes absolutely no sense. They discuss the first film and disregard the second, even though the main chick from TCM 2 makes a cameo. So once again, if you take Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III as a singular film, it's pretty decent. However when taking in two account there were two prior films, Leatherface makes no sense. What a confusing place Texas is.
