Former Leatherface Andrew Bryniarski Determined To Clear His Name In Animal Cruelty Case
The grotesque and disgusting ghouls at TMZ have a follow-up to yesterday’s shocker, which alleged that Andrew Bryniarski (who played the new Leatherface in the 2003 The Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake, and its sequel The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning) and his girlfriend, Jennifer Abram, were arrested Saturday on suspicion of animal cruelty for allegedly hoarding 25 dogs in their Santa Monica mobile home.
Bryniarski let the trash show inside his RV to show the world…his mobile home is well-stocked to care for 25 dogs — but the problem is he’s trying to prove it 4 days too late. Andrew invited the camera crew into the RV on Wednesday in an effort to show us cops had it all wrong — and in the video the place is stocked with water, food, and other pet care essentials. Their camera guy also swears the RV does NOT smell like pee.
The site reports that, of course, Andrew was arrested Saturday night … so it’s entirely possible he cleaned the RV and bought a bunch of supplies after the fact. Andrew insists he’s legit … telling them he purchased the RV from a local dog rescue to launch a mobile adoption center, and — for what it’s worth — the rescue confirmed his story when called.

Christopher Landon to Helm Feature Adaptation of Grady Hendrix’s ‘The Final Girl Support Group’
A new feature adaptation of author Grady Hendrix‘s slasher book The Final Girl Support Group is now on the way from Paramount Pictures, and Deadline reports that it’s found its director in Christopher Landon (Drop, Happy Death Day).
The two previously collaborated on My Best Friend’s Exorcism.
In The Final Girl Support Group, “Lynette is a real-life final girl who survived a massacre. For more than a decade, she’s been meeting with five other final girls and their therapist in a support group for those who survived the unthinkable, working to put their lives back together. Then one woman misses a meeting, and their worst fears are realized—someone knows about the group and is determined to rip their lives apart again, piece by piece.”
“But the thing about final girls is that no matter how bad the odds, how dark the night, how sharp the knife, they will never, ever give up.”
I wrote in my novel review for BD, “Hendrix puts his characters through the absolute wringer. It’s a bloody, vicious voyage for the flawed heroine, both physically and emotionally. In terms of action and horror, Support Group delivers breakneck pacing and thrills.”
Five years ago, Andy Muschietti & Barbara Muschietti (Mama, It, It Chapter Two) were attached to produce a planned series adaptation for HBO Max alongside Charlize Theron. While Theron is no longer producing, the Muschiettis remain on board under their Double Dream label.
Paramount Pictures is also developing Hendrix’s sci-fi novella, BadAsstronauts.
