The TSA Came Face-to-Face With Nubbins From ‘The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2’
Having done a fair bit of traveling in my days, I can assure you that the Transportation Security Administration (aka the TSA) cause long lines and definitely take their sweet time checking people out. Admittedly, I’ve never been pulled aside for longer than 15 minutes, but I’ve heard horror stories from family and friends alike, all of whom had to deal with the agency for hours at a time, missing their flights or making it by the skin of their teeth.
But recently the TSA in Atlanta got a little fright of their own when the Nubbins corpse prop from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 went through the line and had to go through the X-Ray machine, as evidenced in the below photos.
The reason Nubbins went through security services is because there was a Texas Chainsaw Massacre reunion of sorts at the Mad Monster convention in Scottsdale, AZ. Edwin Neal, who played “The Hitchhiker” in the first film, William Butler from Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3, and Bill Johnson, Bill Moseley, and Caroline Williams of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 were all in attendance, so it only made sense that the Nubbins prop make an appearance as well. But it was the return home that saw the travel issues for the decaying fella.
I guess even in death, the TSA can make you wait just a little longer.

‘Dead Mail’ Exclusive Images: SXSW Horror Movie Begins With a Blood-Stained Postal Box Delivery
One of the genre films we’re looking forward to checking out at SXSW this year is Dead Mail, written and directed by Joe DeBoer and Kyle McConaghy and premiering on March 9.
Meagan Navarro will be reviewing Dead Mail for Bloody Disgusting as part of her SXSW coverage, and she writes in her preview for the upcoming fest: “Dead Mail leans heavily into the ’80s analog aesthetic, delivering a unique crime thriller unafraid to get offbeat with its dark narrative. Expect its characters to be as atypical as Dead Mail‘s sense of style.”
In the SXSW 2024 horror film…
“On a desolate, Midwestern county road, a bound man crawls towards a remote postal box, managing to slide a blood-stained plea-for-help message into the slot before a panicking figure closes in behind him. The note makes its way to the county post office and onto the desk of Jasper, a seasoned and skilled “dead letter” investigator, responsible for investigating lost mail and returning it to its sender. As he investigates further, Jasper meets Trent, a strange yet unassuming man who has taken up residence at the men’s home where Jasper lives.
“When Trent unexpectedly shows up at Jasper’s office, it becomes clear he has a vested interest in the note, and will stop at nothing to retrieve it…”
Sterling Macer, Jr., John Fleck, Susan Priver, Micki Jackson, Tomas Boykin, and Nick Heyman star in Dead Mail. Preview the film with an exclusive image gallery below.
