The origins of the legendary horror character Leatherface will finally be revealed in the "Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning". The film, which is set years before the original "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" movie, stars Jordana Brewster and is being directed by Jonathan Liebesman.
The original 1974 film, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, shocked and stunned audiences with its bone-chilling realism. The horrifying story, drawn from a series of true events, is considered by many to be one of the greatest thrillers of all time and a landmark of terror that has influenced countless films in its wake. Iconic in popular culture, its menacing evil character, "Leatherface," will forever be one of the most recognizable screen villains.
With 2003's remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, starring Jessica Biel, the filmmakers at Platinum Dunes brought new life and vigor to the horror movie genre, while also honoring its predecessor. Now company continues on that path with a prequel, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning, which details the beginnings of the Hewitt clan and exposes their psychotic idea of family run.
