Why it’s HorroRated

The Return of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre is mostly notable for early McConaughey and Zellweger before they became stars. McConaughey's Vilmer is strange and goes places the earlier family villains didn't bother going. Chaotic and uneven but historically interesting for what it shows about where those careers started.

Synopsis

The final original-era Texas Chainsaw entry brings Matthew McConaughey and Renee Zellweger to the material in early roles they approached with more commitment than the film deserved. McConaughey's Vilmer goes places earlier family villains never did. Chaotic and uneven but historically interesting for where those careers were starting.
