In the prom night, Heather (Lisa Newmyer) finds her boyfriend Barry (Tyler Cone) kissing Brenda. Irritated, she goes to his car and leaves the party, but Barry reaches her. While driving and arguing, they find that their friends Jenny (Renee Zellweger) and Sean (John Harrison) are in the back seat of his car smoking pot. They find a detour on the road, and Heather has a car crash. The other driver is wounded and Barry, Heather and Jenny seek out help while Sean stays with the victim. They stumble upon the office of Darla (Tonie Perenski) and she calls her boyfriend Vilmer (Matthew McConaughey) that has a tow truck to help them, and they leave her place to return to their car. However, Barry and Heather run after a car to hitchhike and separate from Jenny. They stumble upon a farmhouse where Leatherface (Robert Jacks) and W. E. (Joe Stevens) "welcome" them. Meanwhile the deranged Vilmer finds Sean and the wounded driver and kills them. When Jenny gets a ride from Vilmer on the desert road, she learns how crazy he is and leaves him, meeting Leatherface in the woods in an insane night.
"The Return of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre", a.k.a. "Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation"), is a forgettable slasher of the franchise. The greatest attraction are the unknown Renee Zellweger and Matthew McConaughey in 1995, and they have good performances. Leatherface as a drag queen is ridiculous and the bizarre Vilmer as a psychopath with bionic leg in a bizarre family is totally insane. Yesterday I decided to rewatch this movie to see Renee Zellweger and Matthew McConaughey in the beginning of their successful careers and my vote is four.
Title (Brazil): "O Massacre da Serra Elétrica: O Retorno" ("The Chainsaw Massacre: The Return")
