Yep that $300 price tag makes me wince .. they really milk every last cent out of these classics . I’m somewhat interested in the 2 new docus though but I’m not sure what else they can tell us about TCM at this point
Exactly. I mean, you can buy an actual, working chainsaw for less than $200. This thing is ridiculously overpriced. $120-$130 is where it should be I feel, and even that might be pushing it.
My main interest in this set is the new special features, and I'm confident there will be a standard release with the new disc eventually. I won't pick this up unless the price drops to less than $100.
It looks amazing, but like the Evil Dead series, I have so many different copies of TCM on various formats. I also have the Trick or Treat studios saw for display, which I was pleasantly surprised with. If it gets a decent discount I will pick it up, but dang, would still love to have even at full price. Look forward to seeing your review!
Cant say im interested but im more of the type to buy a basic bluray/4k release so im definitely not the target audience. If this is your thing enjoy it, doesnt bother me.
Damn yeah that $300 price tag scares me More than any modern horror movie lol.. I love the original TCM but I’m not sure what else they can show us in terms of new documentaries - I’ve watched tons of them already. Just not much new ground to cover I’d love more documentaries about TCM 3: Leatherface. I think it’s underrated
Ha! I've pre-ordered the limited edition "Glow-in-the-Dark" chainsaw version, which also includes a piece of Leatherface's original shirt! Only 50 available, and it'll only set me back $500!
HUGE chainsaw fan and when i saw it on display at Texas Frightmare Weekend I was on board to pay any price for it…but $300? I think i’ll play the long game and wait for a sale
It looks cool and all. But $300 is too much for me. However, it does make having just dropped $170 on the Imprint Neverending Story set a little less guilt-ridden. 🤷🏻♂️🙂
No thanks. Glad the die hards will have a cool piece though. Hate to say it but what makes stuff like this sell out is resell value, and this will have none because they'll be on the market for a long time.
$300 for just one movie? Nope I don't think so. If it was a set with ALL of the TCM movies with ALL the previous extras plus new ones then heck yeah!🤑 But just the 1st one...like Chucky would say:"this is nuts!"
Nope at well over 300 plus shipping its a big pass. I don't think id pay that for my favorite movie. Im slowly getting priced out of collecting stuff more and more.
Im just surprised that there's a new VHS of the film coming out. It's a nice novelty to have but I just don't see myself ever watching it. If I wanted to watch a grimy vhs copy of Texas Chainsaw Massacre Id just watched one of the ones I already have. I definitely think it's neat but it should probably cost half of what they're charging for it
@@MidwestVillain_Z I don't really think you can upscale VHS. I get what you're saying like maybe it's a new scan put on VHS but I just don't see how that would matter when it comes to such a low quality format. Mind you I could be wrong but I'm not really sure .
@@MidwestVillain_Z I get what you're saying but I just don't think it would translate to VHS regardless. It might look marginally better but there's not much you can do with video tape.
Should be $99 not $299. The only collectable I have ever paid over $100 for was the Shout Factory 16-disc Box Set of Friday the 13 and that's because you got the entire franchise, Paramount and New Line Cinemas. Way too much.
I think im the only person that prefers to watch the original tcm in as unpolished raw form as possible. I still have and love my black cover dvd and dont ever plan on upgrading. This release looks super cool though
It looks a fantastic release but I can't justify the cost personally, awesome for the collectors and anyone who gets a copy though , the saw is a cool way to package it but very little new content for me to get another copy,
Umm no. Love Chainsaw, but even if I did have the money, I still wouldn’t fork over literally $300 for that. Looks cool, but I already have it on 4K, in that really cool white Steelbook with a 4K and Blu Ray. If anyone does get it, I’m happy for you, if you don’t, I’m still happy for you. Set looks nice, but I don’t need that set THAT bad.
There aren’t economies of scale when you produce limited quantities of anything. Every item in this limited run could potentially be costing double or triple of what you would normally get with the same kind of product elsewhere, because everywhere else these items are produced in the hundreds of thousands at one go. There is no way a limited run is ever going to be reasonably priced.
Thw fact there is no new anything with this release, rhe fact the saw is based of a 306a late model saw and NOT the one in the film (a early model 245a) is fucking insanse considering the $300 price point. Nah, I'll stick with the original 4k release.
Between this release and the Hatchet steelbook they’re definitely just taking advantage of the fans, collectors and everyone in between because these prices are INSANE! and locking new special features behind these releases too is just so frustrating because I love these films and the new special features, of both releases, really interest me but there’s no why I’m spending over $370 for stuff that should only cost around $120-$130 for “cool” packaging and new special features. Especially since the Hatchet movies are all blu ray, not even just the first in 4K and are the same discs as past releases. I really hope they come to their senses with their pricing because I don’t see this or any of their future releases getting better… it so disappointing too because these are films people love and wanna celebrate but can’t without getting ripped off. Also seeing your video of the set makes me dislike it even more, it looks very muted in color and super plasticity
Shameless cash grab. Nothing about that set is really all that impressive. You're essentially buying all the content that you likely already have, and the chainsaw thats the equivalent of a $25 Mattel toy. I like collecting some limited edition boutique items like anyone else in this hobby, but people really do need to come back down to reality before pissing away their money on crap that's worth maybe a third of what these companies are asking for. People in hobby really are gullible sometimes. But it's your money. Enjoy 😆
Subtract 40 for the 4k/brd and 25 for the vhs and it becomes clear how absurd this is. You're paying 235 dollars for a tacklebox

@@brianmeen2158 I know, it's getting ridiculous with these prices.
Good thing no one is forcing you to buy it.
Great video but it's not worth it 🤘 taco man 4 life
They absolutely will not sell 5000 of these. They will be discounted around Christmas probably
Chainsaw like yourself is my favorite movie of all time. I want this so bad but can’t get myself to justify 300 dollars
I feel you. It wasn't easy pressing that "preorder" button.
Yeah, no.
I'll stick with the 4K I already have, but it's pretty cool for those who want it. Thanks for the video Piz!
Thank you for watching!
Nothing will ever top that Black Maria box. Best packaging ever and pays homage to the unexpected unsung hero of rhe film.
Looks wild but that price is nutty, if it was every film id consider it, in 4k of course.
Happy with the previous releases.
its pretty expensive, but maybe i could use the saw to start a firewood business and make some of the money back
The old meat packaging DVD was released by Pioneer, not Anchor Bay.
Are you sure? I'm almost positive mine is from Anchor Bay, but I might be mistaken. I looked, but couldn't find mine.
I also own this DVD and can confirm that it is a Pioneer release. Coolest DVD packaging I've ever seen.
Thanks for confirming.
I'm not a Hardcore Fan of Texas Chainsaw, never really was a Fan, but I'm very glad that you are Piz!
My main interest in this set is the new special features, and I'm confident there will be a standard release with the new disc eventually. I won't pick this up unless the price drops to less than $100.

If it had the other films in 4k sure but that price just for the 1st movie is wild
Hella cool, but crazy price. Maybe worth it if it included the hat, shirt, and poster.
Really cool, but I’m fine with my TOTS chainsaw and 4K steelbook. That price is just too rich for my blood.
Got the second sight limited edition and the dark sky steelbook with the video treasures vhs. I’m good
I wouldn't buy it at $100. I already have the 4K, I have no use for a VHS, and I already own a real chainsaw.
Yeah but does your real chainsaw make Leatherface noises like this plastic one does? Lol
Cant say im interested but im more of the type to buy a basic bluray/4k release so im definitely not the target audience.
If this is your thing enjoy it, doesnt bother me.
Damn yeah that $300 price tag scares me

I will live vicariously through you, sir. I have my eye on a like new copy of Evil Town for $588 on eBay. 🤣 With slipcover!😂
The heart wants what the heart wants!
No thanks. Glad the die hards will have a cool piece though. Hate to say it but what makes stuff like this sell out is resell value, and this will have none because they'll be on the market for a long time.
I think the middle ground is probably going to be the best version to watch this so I'm going to stick with the Blu-ray.
$300 for just one movie? Nope I don't think so. If it was a set with ALL of the TCM movies with ALL the previous extras plus new ones then heck yeah!🤑 But just the 1st one...like Chucky would say:"this is nuts!"
Always say yes to Texas Chainsaw!! Love it! 🎃
The saw is family, after all!
I want the original 1st 3 films in a 4k box set.
Awesome video Piz hope you're well my awesome friend. Wow set looks awesome but it's a one too high in price .
Nope at well over 300 plus shipping its a big pass. I don't think id pay that for my favorite movie. Im slowly getting priced out of collecting stuff more and more.
it looks great, but at $300... I think I'm happy to stick with the Second Sight limited edition 4k set

I'm curious if it's a upscaled version of the film or an actual vhs quality re-release
@@MidwestVillain_Z I don't really think you can upscale VHS. I get what you're saying like maybe it's a new scan put on VHS but I just don't see how that would matter when it comes to such a low quality format. Mind you I could be wrong but I'm not really sure .
@@bigkmoviesandgamesyea a new HD scan then copied to vhs is what I meant
@@MidwestVillain_Z I get what you're saying but I just don't think it would translate to VHS regardless. It might look marginally better but there's not much you can do with video tape.
Good question. I'm betting an upscale version.
I could buy a real chainsaw in my local hardware store, the 4k, and still have money left over.
Idk why I can’t preorder says shipping not available and I’m in California
Looking forward too the review. 😻😻😻😻
I am, too!

I think im the only person that prefers to watch the original tcm in as unpolished raw form as possible. I still have and love my black cover dvd and dont ever plan on upgrading. This release looks super cool though
Exactly I don’t want a crystal clear version of TCM. I want it to retain its snuff film quality 😛
Cool set but waaay to expensive!
It looks a fantastic release but I can't justify the cost personally, awesome for the collectors and anyone who gets a copy though , the saw is a cool way to package it but very little new content for me to get another copy,
It looks awesome. However, I’m going to stick with the 4K copy that I have. $300 is just way out of my price range.
300$!!! Atleast someone can afford that. That's beyond stupidly over priced! I can buy the 4k version and a real chainsaw for that!!!
@pizzowell, if you got money like that you should be taking bubba for tacos 3×a day. 7 days a week! 😆
Any chance that anybody knows where or whom makes the yellow tcm shirt that hes got on?? @5:45

Add the Game and some Signatures and maybe it’s worth that price point .

I absolutely love the movie . But will not give $300 for this . Maybe it will get cheaper as time go's on 🤞
I am like 5 years older than the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
and it costs $300.00 no way they try to take advantage of us horror collectors so much.
Great film and have all the versions you mentioned. I will pass on this one.
Thw fact there is no new anything with this release, rhe fact the saw is based of a 306a late model saw and NOT the one in the film (a early model 245a) is fucking insanse considering the $300 price point. Nah, I'll stick with the original 4k release.
The price is absolutely ridiculous. With that being said... Yes, I did preorder it the moment I saw it was announced
Me, too! I did hesitate a little before pushing the "pre-order" button.
Na, I'll pass on that one. I'd rather it come in a hard box than a chainsaw I have no room for.
That's going to be an issue for me, too. But I'll make room for it.

I would pay that for Micheal’s collection not chainsaws though maybe 125$
I have chainsaw 2 on vhs and chaunsaw 1 on Blu-ray just jeed the first on vhs
Great looking edition, Piz but the price is way too much. I think die hard fans will buy it you know how dedicated they can be.
Oh, I know. I'm one of'em!
I just don’t know if I want to do this. You’re basically paying 200 or more just for a chainsaw. I’ll admit it’s nice but 300 is just asking too much.
Very cool but overpriced like allot of things.
you bought it! i thought you were walking away until the end! lol. steeep price look forward to ur unboxing
300 buck !?
Did you really need a chainsaw that bad?
Need? No. Want? Yes!
It looks cool but a wallet destroyer!
It'll MASSACRE your wallet, you could say!
@@pizowell Yep

Super weak. Second Sight release is way better.
