I thought the plot was very basic and there wasn't enough character development; like I didn't even know Sally and Franklin were siblings until I read about it on Wikipedia after watching the movie. I also felt the story was slow paced especially during the first half of the movie which at that point I realised the movie isn't going to be great. I didn't find the movie scary, however I did flinch when Leatherface came out of nowhere in the dark. I'm guessing this was a good movie for it's time and probably unique from other horror movies of that era, but these types of movies won't work today as you can see by the numerous sequels and remakes from this franchise.
