One of my early genre-movies was "Cannibal! The Musical" from 1993; I had to wait more than twenty years for another movie that is both as gory and as humorous: "Chainsaws Were Singing" was shot guerilla-style in Estonia, is low-budget (and you can see it, but it is GOOD the way it is), charming and makes you think of good times, when horror movies didn't try to educate you or send a message. "Chainsaws" shows, that DIY creativity is more worth than a big budget. Eventhough "Chainsaws" runs for two hours, there is not a second that should have been edited out - this is exactly how you tell a story, and the actually few (!) musical parts perfectly fit into the absurdity of the story - I wish, Todd Philips ("Joker: Folie a Deux") would have asked Sander Maran, the bain behind the movie, to teach him a lesson or two.
Anyway, if you're no serious guy or gal, "Chainsaws" will be in yout top-10-list for 2024 for sure. This is a freckin masterpiece. They should at least get one Oscar.
