Essentially if you've watched the far superior Frontier(s), Texas Chainsaw Massacre, or really any slashes film that revolves around a family of cannibalistic nutcases butchering their hopeless victims you've seen Macabre.
It's not necessarily bad, i found myself feeling underwhelmed a lot of the time. I feel it's because i didn't really care about any of the characters , they're just coffin fodder, which is fine but it doesn't make for a particularly interesting horror film.
If you're just looking for something that has a fair amount of blood and some entertaining gore then sure it's a way to pass a few hours, but really why watch this when you can watch the films mentioned above.
Aside from the plot, the characters make incredibly stupid decisions throughout which doesn't help you feel invested in their story at all, essentially i'd say this, i own it in my collection, it's not bad enough to sell but it's not good enough to rush to watch again anytime soon.
It's fun, It's stupid, It's average....and a little Macabre i suppose.
