Zellweger makes Jenny the most formidable scream queen since Jamie Lee Curtis went legit.

Joe Leydon, Variety
Rotten

From electric cattle prods to human infernos, it's an tough, rough ride.

Bruce Westbrook, Houston Chronicle
Rotten

Without much wit of its own, Kim Henkel's tyro film is just what the polished Scream makes fun of.

Janet Maslin, New York Times
Rotten

The kind of cinematic endeavor where you suspect both cast and crew were obligated to bring their own beer.

Mike Clark, USA Today
Rotten

Renee Zellweger and Matthew McConaughey try to out-bad-act each other in the luridly abysmal third sequel to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
