A selection box of new viral images have appeared over the last few days from John Luessenhop’s ‘Texas Chainsaw 3D’. There’s clippings and an evidence file plus even a nice seasonal turkey filled Thanksgiving greeting card from the abnormally dysfunctional Sawyer family unit. After some lackluster sequels attempted previously by a variety of filmmakers the ‘Chainsaw’ revival came courtesy of the Marcus Nispel helmed remake back in 2003. And now here we are 10 more years on and close to seeing a more direct follow-up to Tobe Hoopers’s 1974 cult classic. Dan Yeager, John Dugan, Bill Moseley (‘The Devil’s Rejects’), Alexandra Daddario (‘Hall Pass’), Sue Rock, Tania Raymonde (‘Lost’), Scott Eastwood, Gunnar Hansen, Tobe Hooper, Paul Rae, Keram Malicki-Sánchez, Ritchie Montgomery, Trey Songz, Marilyn Burns, Shaun Sipos, Thom Barry and Richard Riehle all star. Check out the new virals below.
“The film continues the legendary story of the homicidal Sawyer family, picking up where Tobe Hooper’s 1974 horror classic left off in Newt, Texas, where for decades people went missing without a trace. The townspeople long suspected the Sawyer family, owners of a local barbeque pit, were somehow responsible. Their suspicions were finally confirmed one hot summer day when a young woman escaped the Sawyer house following the brutal murders of her four friends. Word around the small town quickly spread, and a vigilante mob of enraged locals surrounded the Sawyer stronghold, burning it to the ground and killing every last member of the family – or so they thought.
Decades later and hundreds of miles away from the original massacre, a young woman named Heather learns that she has inherited a Texas estate from a grandmother she never knew she had. After embarking on a road trip with friends to uncover her roots, she finds she is the sole owner of a lavish, isolated Victorian mansion. But her newfound wealth comes at a price as she stumbles upon a horror that awaits her in the mansion’s dank cellars.”
