This is a Featurette from the DVD of
"The TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE: The BEGINNING".

Synopsis:

Bear witness to the birth of the most horrifying legend in the history of cinema as director Jonathan Liebesman explores the nightmarish origins of the psychotic Hewitt family in this sequel to director Marcus Nispel's 2003 hit The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The year is 1969, and despite the fact that the Vietnam War is raging halfway across the globe, all is ominously quiet on the back roads of America. Eighteen-year-old Dean Hill (Taylor Handley) has just received his draft notice, and his older brother, Eric (Matthew Bomer), is determined to watch out for his younger sibling by ensuring that Dean enroll in the Marine Corps rather than risking his luck at the local induction center. Dean has other plans, though, and as soon as the pair and their girlfriends, Bailey (Diora Baird) and Chrissie (Jordana Brewster), return from their final fling in sunny Texas, he plans to confront his brother with the prospect of dodging the draft. When an unsettling encounter with malevolent bikers Holden (Lee Tergesen) and Alex (Cyia Batten) results in a serious car accident in which Chrissie is thrown from the vehicle, the arrival of Sheriff Hoyt (R. Lee Ermey) at first appears to be a moment of divine intervention. However, when Sheriff Hoyt murders thieving Alex in cold blood and then shepherds her friends into the back of his police cruiser as Chrissie watches from the brush, their momentary reprieve soon gives way to an unimaginable terror. As Hoyt transports her ailing friends to the Hewitt home, where a childlike man named Thomas is currently undergoing the transformation into cannibalistic madman Leatherface (Andrew Bryniarski), a desperate Chrissie attempts to enlist the aid of Holden in rescuing her friends from a fate worse than death.

  • Sheldon Turner...who would latter go on to write Up in The Air and the story for X-Men First Class!

  • @clipsryan

    Chainsaw III should be interesting since the 1974 film has never had a true sequel, TCM 2 was played for laughs, Leatherface was essentually a remake disguised as a Sequal and Next Generation was once again a remake disguised as a Sequal.

  • @snakes3425 Very cool. I'm all over that. Thanks for the info.

  • @clipsryan

    I heard Platinum Dunes was done with the Chainsaw movies as they were happy with Beginning and the Remake, Chainsaw III is being done by Lionsgate and is apparently going to be the real sequal to the 1974 film, throwing out Part 2, Leatherface, and Next Generation

  • @tonyAJ420 It's a prequel to a remake and obviously millions of fans don't think it sucked.

  • @clipsryan This movie sucked and its a prequel not a remake

  • Best remake ever. I loved the first one but this one is perfect. No offense to those that like the others but I think they were crap and I don't even count them in the franchise.

  • Perfect horror

  • great movie
