When she locked those two annoying sisters in the car and said that dumb shyt I was like:
It was a cheap move to try and copy the way Halloween brings back Jamie Lee Curtis but it was bullshyt because if Jamie Lee was dead no one would recast the role of Laurie Strode and the fact that most people had no clue that Marilyn Burns was dead and they recast the role with some random old Irish lady should've been the hint that no one was itching to see the character of Sally Hardesty again.
He didn't remember her because she looks nothing like the woman he chased with a chainsaw in 1974.I waited damn near 2 years for this- and this is the best they could do.
They managed to make me actually be on Leatherface’s side for this movie- I had no issue with any of those gentrifukkers being killed.
the flashback scenes with the mass shooting - what was the point of that?? Ok we get it… she survived a mass shooting and is emotionally scarred. This wasn’t the movie for that.
and they false advertised this- Sally Hardesty waits 50 years to have her confrontation and No decades of combat training, gun usage… we’re expected to believe some 90lb 75 year old lady was taking on Leatherface- the trailer made it seem like there was some buildup and she had spent all this time prepared to pull up
Sally gets to Leatherface and asks “you don’t remember me??”
Df type of climatic event is that?? Biggest fumble in a horror movie ever!! I can’t even
And one more thing that irked me about this movie and bleeds into the anti-hero depiction of Leatherface...according to this movie Leatherface, after failing to catch Sally in 1974, spent the next 50 years of his life living in that orphanage not murdering anyone solely because the woman who ran the orphanage was nice to him? That flies in the face of the film they claim to be a continuation of.
It made sense given the fact they were [Gen Z] idealists (this was even mentioned in dialogue in the first act). They wanted to create a utopia without really thinking about the practical ramifications. The whole property deed drama played into this as well. The set up of the town worked - it was nearly everything else that surrounded it and in contrast to it that didn't.
Again, I think the director was poking fun at the Halloween trope by trying to give Sally the appearance and backstory of a Final Girl; Leatherface not remembering her played into this as well, because she was a forgettable character. I don't think it was meant to be taken seriously, hence her abruptive death, which they wouldn't have done if they wanted her to save the day. I can understand the idea of it, it just didn't work. It was made worse by her seemingly coming back from the dead and letting off that shotgun for one last time. That broke the logic/rules it created for the character; you can't go back and forth between what her purpose is.
That’s an automatic F breh
