EXCLUSIVE
'Saw' Producer Revs Another Saw: 'Leatherface 3D'
Friday, October 29, 2010

With the Saw franchise coming to an end, producer Mark Burg will be joining Carl Mazzocone in bringing the Texas Chainsaw Massacre back to theaters. Word has it that Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures are putting the finishing touches on Debra Sullivan and Adam Marcus' (thanks to Shocktillyoudrop for the name corrections) screenplay for Leatherface 3D. We're told that the plot picks up immediately where Tobe Hooper's original left off before flashing forward 35 years. There's buzz of a "cult" involved. Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures acquired the rights to Leatherface once Platinum Dunes and New Line Cinema passed on making a second sequel to the 2003 reboot. Marcus wrote and directed Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday.

I have an awesome idea for a sequel to the original Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Hypothetically, it would star the late Dennis Hopper and Caroline Williams, and instead of a grueling descent into madness, it will be a perverted Splatstick comedy romp. Somebody get on that, why don't they?

Not liking the cult idea.

So this is going to ignore the three sequels and Platinum Dunes' two remake/prequels? Considering how the original never had a true sequel I could be down, but what's with this cult shit? Is Leatherface gonna have a Thorn tat on his wrist and go bar-hopping with Michael Myers?

I'm a huge fan of Leatherface and I will enjoy this. I love all the TCM movies.

Just do it right if you're going to do it at all.

It can't be any worse than what PD did. Nice to see that reboots are the "end all" of continuing a series. Some got the notion that once a reboot is greenlit, it's finito for the original series. Nice to see a "spinoff/side-story/alternate canon" branching off from the original franchise. Who knows, maybe that's a new trend in the making, "Branch canons". Then maybe we could go back to the original NOES and Ft13 franchises and continue the story from an alternate canon(like ignoring NOES2-6 and continuing straight after NOES1, bring back an older Nancy and a new story, or tweek the ending of The Final Chapter so that Jason didn't "die" and continue on the "living Jason" while ignoring Ft13th part 5-Jason X).

^^ I meant "AREN'T" the end all of continuing a series. Damn sticky keyboard.

I agree with you cult31, the word cult ruins this for me, this is probably saying the real Leatherface will die in the beginning and this cult will pick up in his footsteps, if this is what it is, they should'nt bother even making it. My idea would be to get Gunnar Hansen back,if he's willing that would be enough for me

Anything with Leatherface is going to interest me, but on that same note, anything in 3D is going to keep me away. We've had enough with the 3D already haha Next thing you know, they will be remaking Leprechaun in the Hood in 3D...or even Shades of Darkness: 3D. God help us.

WE've heard the cult idea before with the Friday reboot and nightmare reboot and possibly even FvJ. Doubt it actually happens. I am personally a fan of the Remake of TCM and TCM:TB so if they can keep them good then they can keep them coming, though 3D needs to back the fuck off.

O come on they couldn't just make another sequel...ENOUGH with this prequel crap...it's so old...about as old as this 3D trend... This will probably be garbage...

Out of all the remakes, TCM is the one that was handled the best. I mean, "The Beginning" wasn't even TOO bad. So...maybe this could be good. I guess we'll see.

I'm not a fan of 3d but Leatherface will be Bubba again and not Thomas! Thats really cool. I didn't hate the remake/pre-make but I liked Leatherface better as a crazy retard rather than a dude who was pissed he had bad skin.

Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday is unwatchable.

I have a feeling this will be direct to video. I hope I'm wrong though, and hope it will actually be good, but I have my doubts.

This would be so bad but so entertaining
