*MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD*
The movie takes place in 1974. Same yearasTTCM. The couple and a brother and a sister even drives in a Wolkswagen just like in TTCM . Problem one: theyre all one dimensional and all pretty unlikeable. They take a girl with them from a diner. A frightened girl on the run from the badguys. Just like in the 2006 remake of TTCM. At one point one of the girls throw the keys away to the car to punish one of the guys. While they search for the keys, some men show up and kills two of the girls for no reason at all. Later for no reason at all the survivors find themselves tied up in the woods. They manage to break free, another guy is found tied to atree. They free him and split up for stupid reasons I cant remember. Theyre all eventually killed except the hot blonde girl who kills all the men that killed her friends for no reason at all. She is picked by a woman in a car who workedat the diner from early in the movie. When she hears from the girl that she killed all of her friends or family whatever they are she drives off with the girl locked inside the car. And the girl id doomed. The movie ends.
The three major problems are as follows: the badguys in the movie has no lines, there is no reason why they kill and butcher young people travelling through those woods. Theyre not obvious maniacs who takes pleasure in torturing their victims, unlike in TCM, where that part was what made it scary and made it work. The badguys alsdo never laughs or smiles and they are easily defeated and killed themselves, These men are suppossed to be skilled hunters of human prey. Yet theyre not that smart.
Second problem: the movie doesn't have the guts to be really sick. Al though there is lots of gore, most kills happen off camera. You also never see where they badguys live or if theyre related to eachother. There are no furnitures made of human bones and no Leatherface.
Third problem: the victims and especially the hunters remain pretty anonymous throughout the movie. So as a viewer I never cared what happened to any of them.
I recommend skipping this one and watch The oringal 1974 The Texas Chainsaw Massacre instead.
This movie Rovdyr which means Predator in english is so bad that its insulting to have to be compared to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, which is true horror masterpiece. But the obvious influence makes it unfortunately necessary.
