The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 2 (1986)
The original turns 50 this year, and is an undisputed horror classic. But Tobe Hooper’s 1986 follow-up, which keeps the grisly terror and rural Texas setting—ah, the aroma of barbecued human flesh in the air—adds in a surprising new element: pitch-black comedy! Dennis Hopper’s deadpan chainsaw shopping sequence is all-time, and Bill Moseley’s Chop-Top is as quotable as ever, even as this sequel nears its own 40th anniversary mark. Stream on Tubi.
