Plot: The movie takes place 20 years after the events of the first film. A young woman named Sally Hardesty, the sole survivor of the 1974 massacre, is finally able to move on with her life after being institutionalized for years. However, her peace is short-lived as she and her friends are stalked and killed by Leatherface and his family.
The film's success spawned a series of sequels, including "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2" (1986), "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation" (1990), and "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" (1994). The franchise became known for its over-the-top violence, gore, and campy humor.
The Plot: "Do Your Thing, Cuz"
Directed by John Luessenhop, Texas Chainsaw 3D picks up immediately after the harrowing climax of Tobe Hooper’s 1974 masterpiece. We see the Sawyer family homestead swarmed by a vengeful Texas mob. They torch the house, shooting anyone who runs. But in the chaos, a baby is found in the rubble—the infant daughter of the Sawyers.
Furthermore, the film features a surprisingly good performance from Trey Songz (the R&B singer) as one of the victims, and Dan Yeager as Leatherface brings a physicality that feels brutal and grounded.
