Also, past experiences let hardcore fans keep calm because the uncensored version could be expected on the home video releases later on. These modifications also caused a delay of the release date but did not really affect the box office success with $35 million. Since that is not lucrative for a theatrical release, censorship was applied in order to get the "R" rating ( for strong, grisly violence and language throughout). Therefore, it was fitting that the newest entry received the MPAA's infamous NC-17 rating. Not only since 2007's overly brutal TCM: The Beginning, gruesome acts of violence are one of the franchise's trademarks. In the end, we have a surprisingly refreshing entry for the TCM franchise.īut the film tries to please its fan crowd in other aspects, as well. Of course, it's a group of twentysomethings that face the horrors of the Texan rural town but this time we have a story element that saves the film halfway from the conventional road we know all too well. And we shouldn't be too sad about that because all criticism aside, Texas Chainsaw 3D turned out to be quite solid movie. That means that a sequel is already greenlit and can be expected around 2014. Still, it managed to make a decent amount at the US box office with almost $35 million. Therefore, the expectations for Texas Chainsaw 3D, which is a direct sequel to the very first film, weren't that high. After the last entry TCM: The Beginning, one could expect that nearly everything has been told about the chainsaw-wielding Texan but 2013 taught us the contrary. ![]() There was mainly yawning when the news surfaced that Twisted Pictures, the production company behind the Saw series closed a multi-picture deal with the owners of the film rights to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
