Based on true events that happened in Travis County, Texas, in 1973. The movie begins with the state police and FBI searching the Thomas Hewitt farmhouse, where they have discovered a large collection of body parts. The movie flashes back several days to a VW bus with 5 young people returning from Mexico. They almost hit a girl in a state of shock, walking in the middle of the road. They try to help her and put her in the bus. She thinks they are taking her back, and she pulls out a hidden gun and commits suicide. The young people on the bus contact the police, and unfortunately, they end up at Hewitt's farmhouse, where the grisly killings began. They encounter the leatherface killer, who is wearing a mask made from the flesh of his victims, and his waving chainsaw. Don't get in his path! Douglas Young (the-movie-guy)
