Movies like Texas Chainsaw Massacre, ranked
1. The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974)
The 1974 original establishes the raw, documentary-style visceral terror and isolated Texan setting that grounds the 2022 film's exploration of outsiders colliding with a lawless rural world.
2. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003)
Tobe Hooper's original vision of isolated rural horror returns with the same relentless family of killers, visceral chainsaw violence, and inescapable Texas landscape that defined the franchise's most terrifying entries.
3. Chainsaw Man (2022)
Chainsaw Man channels the same raw, visceral brutality and body horror as Texas Chainsaw Massacre, using graphic violence as the thematic core while balancing moments of darkly comedic character dynamics amid relentless survival stakes.
4. Wrong Turn (2021)
A secluded community's violent response to outsiders encroaching on their isolated territory creates the same claustrophobic dread and social commentary about rural spaces that defines this film.
5. Scream (2022)
A masked killer's methodical stalking of outsiders who threaten the status quo of a small town creates the same claustrophobic dread and social commentary about intruders disrupting isolated communities.
6. Wrong Turn 4: Bloody Beginnings (2011)
Isolated settings and relentless pursuit by deranged killers force groups to navigate confined spaces where escape becomes increasingly impossible, ratcheting tension through claustrophobic geography and mounting body counts.
7. Friday the 13th (1980)
Both films center on outsiders intruding into isolated spaces with dark histories, but the isolated setting and methodical slasher mechanics—a masked killer systematically picking off trespassers—will feel immediately familiar to Texas Chainsaw Massacre viewers.
8. Slashed Dreams (1975)
Isolated rural settings become claustrophobic traps where outsiders collide with hostile locals in this '70s proto-slasher that shares the original TCM's unflinching depiction of violence as social commentary.
