New Texas Chainsaw Massacre Trailer Has Influencers In Leatherface's Crosshairs
New Texas Chainsaw Massacre Trailer Has Influencers In Leatherface's Crosshairs-October 2024
Oct 31, 2024 5:28 PM

  A new trailer for the latest installment in the long-running Texas Chainsaw Massacre series has been released. The film--simply titled Texas Chainsaw Massacre--arrives on Netflix on February 18.

  "I think the first movie really hit a nerve when portraying that culture clash between the countryside and the city," filmmaker Fede Álvarez (Don't Breathe), who co-conceived the story, told Entertainment Weekly. "Back in the '70s [when the franchise began], the hippies were representing the youth of the city. This time, they're more like millennial hipsters from Austin who are very entrepreneurial and have a dream of getting away from the city and back to the countryside. They're trying to gentrify small-town America--and let's just say they encounter some pushback."

  In the new trailer, which you can watch above, that conflict Álvarez describes is on full display--even more so than in the trailer released back in December. According to an official synopsis for the film, "influencers looking to breathe new life into a Texas ghost town encounter Leatherface, an infamous killer who wears a mask of human skin."

  Texas Chainsaw Massacre is produced by Álvarez and directed by David Blue Garcia. It stars Alice Krige (Star Trek: First Contact), Elsie Fisher (Eighth Grade), Nell Hudson (Victoria), William Hope (Aliens), and Sarah Yarkin (Happy Death Day 2U).There's also a new game adaptation of the franchise--The Texas Chain Saw Massacre--in the works that will launch on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC. The game will be an asymmetrical multiplayer horror title based on the classic 1974 horror film.
