As ridiculous and bad as this film is.....and it is (though I think McConaughey is fun to watch), I never thought Leatherface's sexual confusion and cross dressing was all that odd or out of place really. The idea seemed to be there in the first one....it was just really subtle.

It was too obvious in this, I know it was hinted at in 1 that he most likely wanted to be a woman but here he was just....bizarre. And not in the good way.

Well, most of the movie was obvious and bizarre....and not in the good way.... but I always think that them expanding on that particular idea is a weird reason to pick on this movie....when there are so many other reasons to pick on it.... But I don't necessarily think that Leatherface wanted to be a woman....I don't think he understood what he wanted. He's a character that has no real identity outside of what his family molded him to be through abuse, and the terrible things he does to his victims....otherwise he has no real personality or anything really......makes sense that such a character would be confused about well.....anything and everything.

Mainly the yelping is what bugged me, and being a little bitch also irritated me. That's more or less what i meant lol. But I see where you're coming from.

Rewatched this one for the first time in well over a decade. I didn't hate it. Zellweger and McConaughey were great. It's still easily the worst in the series unless I end up hating the remake which I have yet to see.
The illuminati angle was stupid and there's the whole Leatherface issue. I don't mind that he was a tranny, what bothered me was that he was out of shape, unscary, and hardly in the movie and when he was he was just sitting there looking stupid.
2/5

Whoever gave this a four is really generous. The only good thing about it is Matthew McConaughey and that's it.

That was me, stinger. I'll own up to it.
