- Ensemble Dark Horse:
- Benny the badass African-American, machine gun-toting survivalist is easily the most memorable character in the film, and has a significant fanbase. This is why he inexplicably survives Leatherface shoving a chainsaw into his face. The fact he’s played by Ken Foree helps too.
- Leatherface's Creepy Child Child by Rape and brothers Tex (a Bitch In Sheepsclothing Gay Cowboy) and Tinker (a Gadgeteer Genius with a Hook Hand) may be better-liked in this film than Leatherface himself, and all give creepy but colorful performances that make them among the more popular members of the ever-changing Sawyer Family tree.
- He's Just Hiding: Some fans think that Tinker survives his wounds rather than bleeding out.
- So Okay, It's Average: Between the more contested second film and the following film being considered a Franchise Killer, this one usually tends to get passed over and criticized for not having much of an identity while being acknowledged as having some okay fights and characters.
- They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character: Sara has spent a week on the run from the Sawyer Cannibal Clan after they killed her sisters one-by-one and is Laughing Mad at times, but still a decent Action Survivor who is able to escape from Leatherface multiple times and still tries to help other survivors. Fans would have liked seeing her form a Power Trio with Michelle and Benny, get more Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass moments and ultimately avenge her sisters and escape, but she has only one scene with notable dialogue, her chase scenes are brief and unmemorable, and she doesn't make it to the final act or even get to meet Michelle.
