Originally titled The Return of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre upon its initial release, the film was rereleased a year later as The Next Generation. This notorious installment in the Texas Chainsaw saga has sparked debate and discussion among genre fans for decades. So, jump in as Golden, Mr. Sir, and Antheny dissect this perplexing piece of horror history, bringing their signature blend of insight and hilarity to the table.
In this episode, the hosts tackle their inarguable disappointment with the film, despite their appreciation for Matthew McConaughey's unhinged performance, which stands as a bizarre highlight that demands to be seen. They express their frustration over the screaming, bumbling portrayal of Leatherface, noting that while Robert Jacks may look the part in the infamous mask, the character's execution leaves much to be desired.
Prepare for a no-holds-barred critique of the film's cringe-worthy dialogue, the staggering absence of a coherent plot, and the bewildering inclusion of an Illuminati subplot that seems as out of place as it is unnecessary. The gang doesn't shy away from dissecting the movie's many flaws, from its failed attempts at humor to its baffling narrative choices.
Yet, it's not all chainsaws and despair. The boys also delve into what the film could have been, exploring its few redeeming qualities and pondering how it fits... or fails to fit into the Texas Chainsaw Massacre legacy.
Join Golden, Mr. Sir, and Antheny as they saw through The Next Generation, serving up a hefty dose of criticism, a sprinkling of admiration for McConaughey's commitment to the role, and plenty of laughs at the film's expense. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who loves to revel in the madness of horror's most infamous franchise, even when it misses the mark by a country mile.

The boys start things off with an appetizer of discussion on the cult classics of Quentin Tarantino's and Robert Rodriguez's Grindhouse, including Death Proof and Planet Terror. But that's not all before they get to the main course; Thanksgiving. A film that isn't just another slasher... it's a feast of scenes, and our hosts are ready to digest every delectable detail.

We'll be navigating the perilous world of late-night prank calls, killer movie trivia, and teen angst in the seemingly peaceful town of Woodsboro.

Golden, Mr. Sir, and Antheny won't hold back as they debate the impact of Scream on the horror landscape, speculate wildly about who's behind the Ghostface mask (hint: it's not Mr. Sir...or is it?), and share some laugh-out-loud commentary on the film's most memorable moments.
