Below is the final one-sheet for Lionsgate’s Texas Chainsaw 3D, which has been rated “R” by the MPAA for “strong, grisly violence and language throughout.”

It was almost NC-17 and has footage from Tobe Hooper’s 1974 original post converted to 3-D. Evan Saathoff dissected the trailer. We reported from the set. We even interviewed director John Luessenhop about the sequel!

In theaters January 4, 2013, the sequel is being directed by John Luessenhop from a screenplay by Adam Marcus, Debra Sullivan and Kirsten Elms. Dan Yeager, John Dugan, Bill Moseley, Alexandra Daddario, Sue Rock, Tania Raymonde, Scott Eastwood, Gunnar Hansen, Tobe Hooper, Paul Rae, Keram Malicki-Sánchez, Ritchie Montgomery, Trey Songz, Marilyn Burns, Shaun Sipos, Thom Barry and Richard Riehle star.

The seventh incarnation is a direct sequel to Hooper’s classic 1974 film that follows the lead character, Heather, who along with her friends, travel to Texas in order to collect an inheritance. The spin? What would you do if you found out your cousin was Leatherface, and he was now YOURS? READ MORE

Bloody reader Salva Gonzalez sent us this rough look at the 3rd poster from Lionsgate’s Texas Chainsaw 3D. This time we get a pretty good idea of Leatherface’s new look! I think it’s actually pretty good, but I prefer the original mask (decades of conditioning will do that to you).

Head inside for the new look at Leatherface. READ MORE

On January 4, 2013 Lionsgate will gas-up their chainsaw and pull the cord on Texas Chainsaw 3D, the John Luessenhop-directed sequel to Tobe Hooper’s classic Texas Chainsaw Massacre that stars Dan Yeager, John Dugan, Bill Moseley, Alexandra Daddario, Sue Rock, Tania Raymonde, Scott Eastwood, Gunnar Hansen, Tobe Hooper, Paul Rae, Keram Malicki-Sánchez, Ritchie Montgomery, Trey Songz, Marilyn Burns, Shaun Sipos, Thom Barry and Richard Riehle.

Yesterday we published an on set report from Bloody Disgusting correspondent Alyse Wax, and now I can share my interview with Luessenhop! We discuss the difficulties of taking on the mantle of the series, the tonal similarities between this film and Tobe Hooper’s 1974 original and whether or not this on tops the lame Next Generation in terms of actually having Chainsaw kills.

On January 4, 2013 Lionsgate will gas-up their chainsaw and pull the cord on Texas Chainsaw 3D, the John Luessenhop-directed “sequel” to Tobe Hooper’s classic Texas Chainsaw Massacre that stars Dan Yeager, John Dugan, Bill Moseley, Alexandra Daddario, Sue Rock, Tania Raymonde, Scott Eastwood, Gunnar Hansen, Tobe Hooper, Paul Rae, Keram Malicki-Sánchez, Ritchie Montgomery, Trey Songz, Marilyn Burns, Shaun Sipos, Thom Barry and Richard Riehler.

This morning we’re excited to finally bring you Alyse’s set report, along with two images exclusive to those who attended!

In addition to this report, Evan Dickson has interviews with John Luessenhop and Alexandra Daddario hitting later this week and early next week. Watch for more leading up to the Leatherface’s return right here on Bloody Disgusting. READ MORE

It’s here! We’ve just now landed the first official trailer for Lionsgate’s newly titled Texas Chainsaw 3D, which has been rated “R” by the MPAA for “strong, grisly violence and language throughout.” The footage looks way cheaper than the Platinum Dunes remake, and the trailer features barely any dialogue, so it’s hard to gauge how good this could be. Still, who knew the sound of a chainsaw revving could be such a luscious sound? What do you guys think?

We received a rash of e-mails and tweets from you guys after we reported Lionsgate’s The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D had been rated “R” by the MPAA for “strong, grisly violence and language throughout.” We checked in with sources close to the film and can reveal that the delay in getting an “R” was that the film has received an “NC-17″ the first few times it had been submitted!

In addition, we can confirm that both the poster and trailer will be coming next month! I can hear that chainsaw revving already!

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D, in theaters January 4, 2013, is being directed by John Luessenhop from a screenplay by Adam Marcus, Debra Sullivan and Kirsten Elms.

ChainLand110211 Spoiler! Long Synopsis For Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D!

Wake up this morning feeling like you needed to know pretty much everything that happens in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D? Well, you’re in luck!

Of course, at this point I’m sure we all expected something along these lines. A reasonable variation of the story from the original film spiced up for modern audiences.

But still, the synopsis issued today seems fairly in depth and beat-by-beat. I’d almost recommend not reading it if you want to go in clean.

But if you do want to know… it’s right here after the jump! READ MORE

Gunnar Hansen Dances for Opening of ‘Chainsaw 3D’!

When we originally announced the project last year, we explained that Lionsgate’s The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D (at the time titled Chainsaw 3D) would be a direct sequel to Tobe Hooper’s classic 1974 slasher Texas Chain Saw Massacre (this is the correct, registered spelling, for the last time).

Gunnar Hansen, who played Leatherface in the original film, was on hand at the Summer Fears in Tatamagouche, NS to present a special showing of Massacre. Cute website Zombies Ate Lauren (take a browse around!) recorded some of the pre-show where Hansen made a HUGE reveal about the opening of 3D, which will slice into theaters October 5, 2012.

“[It's a] true sequel to the original ‘Chainsaw,’ ” he told the audience. “The opening of the movie is the last scene of the original movie. So it starts right at the beginning,”

He continues, “In fact, they’re using some of the footage of Leatherface – of me – dancing at the beginning. [It's] the opening shot I think.” He also jokes that he’s obviously not playing Leatherface and that it’s not the script he would have written.

John Luessenhop is now filming from a screenplay by Adam Marcus, Debra Sullivan and Kirsten Elms, with Dan Yeager, John Dugan, Bill Moseley, Alexandra Daddario, Sue Rock, Tania Raymonde, Scott Eastwood, Gunnar Hansen, Tobe Hooper, Paul Rae, Keram Malicki-Sánchez, Ritchie Montgomery, Trey Songz, Marilyn Burns, Shaun Sipos, Thom Barry and Richard Riehler ALL starring (weeeewwww).

Leatherface has found his latest target – Grammy-nominated rapper and R&B artist Trey Songz.

Songz has signed to play one of the leads in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D, the latest reimagining of Tobe Hooper’s 1974 horror classic about a group of teens who run into a family of cannibals in Texas, writes THR.

Songz will play the male lead and the boyfriend of the previously-cast Alexandra Daddario in the Millennium/Nu Image pic, which will be released on October 5, 2012 by Lionsgate. Chainsaw will be Songz’s big screen acting debut — the part allows the budding thespian to be physical, romantic and heroic.

John Luessenhop (Takers) is directing the pic, which was written by Adam Marcus and Debra Sullivan. Kirsten Elms and Luessenhop did polish work on it.

The horror movie shoots later this month in Shreveport, Louisiana. Producers are hoping to not only reboot the franchise (with a new trilogy) but to also to break a group of fresh-faced actors.
