The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2
Released in 1986, 12 years after the original, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre II has a few things in common with Evil Dead II: it takes a more comedic approach to its gruesome subject matter, enjoys a bigger budget, and features numerous scenes involving chainsaws. TCM II also widened the first film’s scope with more elaborate sets and set pieces, featured jaw-dropping (and skull-slicing) effects by the legendary Tom Savini, and brought a genuine Hollywood star (Dennis Hopper, as a lawman out for revenge) into the fold.
