7. Texas Chainsaw 3D (2013)
LionsgateThere wasn't a lot of love from critics or audiences for last year's reboot of the horror franchise that began with 1974s brutal independent film The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. It leant heavily on its 3D gimmick, focusing more on chucking chainsaws, body parts and just about everything else at the audience than on providing a coherent narrative or real scares. Every plot development in Texas Chainsaw 3D comes as a result of a succession of ridiculous contrivances. Leatherface is cast as a sympathetic anti-hero in a hilariously misguided attempt to convert his brutish character into a modern horror icon. There is silliness at every turn, whether it's the over-amplified gore or the clumsy references to the original movie franchise. The film is actually passably entertaining, but as a horror film, it utterly fails to conjure up anything other than generic jump scares.
