Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2022)
Geriatric leatherface develops superhuman powers
Well that's time if my life I'm not getting back.
On a positive note there is some halfway decent gore but...
Somehow leatherface has been keeping a low profile for the last 50 years, putting him presumable at the mark of around 80 years old. He's been living quietly with a little old foster mum who is probably 20 years younger than him.
Yet when needed to he can dust off that chainsaw and shred the pesky woke yuppies like a deranged nutter who is a quarter of his age!
Moving on to aforementioned woke yuppies! Well I can't say I was overly rooting for any of them to achieve anything beyond an imaginative death scene. Not the warmest bunch.
Sally turns up as a tough old broad who has kept herself alive with the sole desire of killing leatherface. Well let's say that's a bit underwhelming too!
Watch only if extremely bored!
The Odds (2018)
Trying to be deeper than it is!
This started off fairly promising but boy did it get dull fast! By the time it was half way through I was skipping forward as I'd stopped caring and just wanted to get to the end!
It was trying to be very clever, psychological and deep but (with my limited medical knowledge) I couldn't help feeling the main girl recovered from assorted torture methods rather quickly!
Cabin 28 (2017)
Dick Van Dyke school of accents
I do love a rubbish horror but there is rubbish and then there is rubbish!
This film gets two points on the basis of having a couple of fairly gruesome scenes but unfortunately this is overshadowed by some of the worst accents in film ever, and I've seen Mary Poppins!
Notable mention goes to the mum who swayed between British/Australian/Deep south.
No-one else sounded like that were from the same place and the truly terrible accent award goes to the killer who appeared to be using Foghorn Leghorn for his character inspiration.
I also thought it was interesting when the older daughter found the bodies, leading to family flashbacks of scenes she wasn't even in!
Almost fits into the so bad it's good category but not quite x
