What to Expect

This is the 4th part of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise and a loose reboot of the original. This was clearly made to appeal to a younger audience, teens back in '94. It featured upcoming Hollywood stars Matthew McConaughey and RenÃ©e Zellweger as headliners. To give you an idea of what you're in for if you sit down for this one, the movie is about a group of teens driving home from prom who just happen to get lost in the middle of nowhere Texas. Then their car gets smashed up and they have to walk. Then they split up. Then there's fog everything for some reason. Then their flashlights start to flicker out. Then it just starts to mirror the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

Movie Review: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation (1994) ReviewHorror Lists: 20 Terrible Horror Movies You Have to Watch

Critic Reviews:

The cast doesn’t want to be in this movie anymore than you want to watch it.

– AIPT

Eh, I’ve seen worse horror sequels. At least there’s a morsel of an idea here, even if it’s dissected with all the delicacy of a madman twirling a chainsaw.

– Screen Crush

Now, Next Generation is in nowhere near as good as the original The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, but it did its job.
