User Reviews
ChainsawChick – 8/10
“I went in expecting a typical 'making of' doc, but this was so much more intimate. Hearing about Gunnar's poetry readings and his gentle nature really hit me. The interviews are heartfelt, and it's a beautiful tribute to a man who gave us one of the scariest villains ever.”
MidnightMaven – 7/10
“It's a solid documentary, though I wish it dug a bit deeper into the making of the film. Still, the personal stories about Gunnar are fascinating, and it's refreshing to see a horror doc focus on the person behind the mask rather than just the gore.”
FinalGirl1994 – 9/10
“As someone who adores the original TCM, this gave me chills—not from scares, but from the emotional weight. Learning about Gunnar's intelligence and humor made me see 'Leatherface' in a whole new light. A must-watch for true fans.”
GoreGeek – 6/10
“I wanted more gruesome details and BTS anecdotes, but this doc focuses more on Gunnar's life off-screen. It's well-made and respectful, but not what I expected. Still, it's worth a watch for the insights into a horror legend.”
