Episode Details

So, how do you like Texas? Join PJ and Derek as they drive into the dust-choked backroads of Texas for Jeff Burr’s attempt to revive one of horror’s most infamous franchises with Leatherface: Texas Chainsaw Massacre III (1990). In this episode the guys unpack the film's troubled production, the MPAA cuts that reshaped its most brutal moments, Viggo Mortensen's surprisingly savage performance, plus the unforgettable teaser trailer that promised carnage which audiences never got to see, and where Leatherface fits within the ever-changing continuity of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre series. 📺
