a it appear with the outcome of the texas chainsaw massacre series to date be that it capability of maintain it stability a an effective franchise decrease more and more with each film . where the original take horror to a new and edgy level and the follow up take the turn into comedy and yet this third installment merely set up a similar and yet bland premise and that really isn not worth more than brief and mild entertainment . follow a near deadly encounter with the demented attendant of a remote country gas station and two road trip friend find themselves hunt in the dead of night down a long stretch of backwoods road . after be run off the road by a mysterious monster truck and the helpless duo be pursue by a familiar chainsaw wield madman and soon stumble across a prominent hunter ( play by ken foree ) who assist them . the terror doesn not end there and a they later find themselves captive in the new sawyer family residence for a night of sadistic torment . compare to the splatter fest part two and the gore factor of this movie be nothing to write home about . aside from the weak as cannibal family and and the leatherface act like an overgrown teenager and the film itself move along at an alarm pace that leave me feel unfulfilled and in a sense . the on screen mayhem be minimal and forgettable and just plain disappointing . not a good addition to the series .
