The origins of the legendary horror character Leatherface will finally be revealed in this film, which is set years before the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie.

The "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" series began in 1974. For a small budget film, the original raked in a substantial amount of money (approximately $30.9 million). However, the following films made the possible success of a modern-day remake seem impossible. The first film bred two sequels, "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2" (1986) and "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3" (1990).

It's business as usual in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning, which purports to be a prequel to the 2003 remake of the seminal horror classic but is really just more of the same-old in chain-saw land, only grosser.
