Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2022: Why Leatherface's Chainsaw Was In [SPOILER]
Warning: Contains SPOILERS for Texas Chainsaw Massacre
In Netflix’s Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2022, Leatherface’s titular weapon is hidden inside the wall of an orphanage, prompting many fans to wonder why this was the case. For fans of theTexas Chainsaw Massacre franchise, Leatherface’s chainsaw is as iconic a weapon as Freddy’s razor-fingered glove or Jason’s machete. However, this did not stopTexas Chainsaw Massacre 2022 from trying to separate the character from his eponymous killing machine, only to reunite them after a key development.
Like Michael Myers in director Rob Zombie’s Halloween remake, Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2022’s Leatherface doesn’t need any weapon to attack and kill anyone he encounters. He is a massive, unbelievably powerful killer who can snap a man’s arm in two with one hand and proceed to slit their throat with their exposed wrist bone. As a result, the chainsaw of Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2022 is somewhat redundant, but this doesn’t stop Leatherface’s caretaker Mrs. Mc from endeavoring to keep it out of bounds. About halfway through the action of Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2022, Leatherface’s elderly caregiver Mrs. Mc has died and the hulking horror antagonist has returned to the abandoned orphanage he has called home for some fifty years. There, he finds his chainsaw hidden inside a wall in Mrs. Mc's bedroom. Just as Halloween 2018 reunited Michael Myers with his mask, Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2022 gives Leatherface his chainsaw back now that the only person able to curb his lethal impulses has passed on, and it’s not long before he’s wreaking brutal vengeance on the town of Harlow’s new inhabitants.
