First Look At Leatherface In ‘Texas Chainsaw 3D’!

The latest entry in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise will be hitting theaters next January. A creepy poster has popped up online earlier this month and now the first image of Leatherface from Texas Chainsaw 3D has hit the net. The film is not a remake but rather a direct sequel to the 1974 original and picks up where that film left off: a young woman has escaped the horrors of the Sawyer family and has alerted the authorities.

The townspeople descend on the Sawyer household and burn it to the ground, seemingly putting an end to the family’s reign of terror.  The story then jumps decades forward and hundreds of miles away from the original massacre where a young woman named Heather has inherited a Texas estate from a grandmother she didn’t know she had. But her newfound wealth comes at a price as she stumbles upon a horror that awaits her in the mansion’s dank cellars. It appears that the townspeople just may not have gotten rid of the entire Sawyer family.

The films is directed by John Luessenhop (Takers, Lockdown) andAlexandra Daddario, Tania Raymonde, Sue Rock, Scott Eastwood, Trey Songz, Keram Malicki-Sanchez, Shaun Sipos, Thom Barry, Paul Rae and Richard Riehle. The film will also feature several of the original cast members from the first flick including John Dugan who will reprise his role as Grandfather and Marilyn Burns, Bill Moseley and Gunnar Hansen.
