Leatherface is a
mindless mix of foul language and unbridled, bloody violence.
A family of sadistic cannibals patrol a lonely stretch of
Texas road where they hunt their victims. The victims are then
brought back to the family homestead where they are
sadistically tortured before being killed and dismembered to
provide meat for the table. This is not an Ozzie and Harriet
household These people are totally crazy. Anyone abhorring
blood, gore and violence will not want to see this picture.
In a scene where an
armadillo is hit by a car, both a fake and real armadillo were
used. The real armadillo was briefly sedated by a veterinarian
and an American Humane representative was present at all
times.
In a another scene a
car smashes into a coyote, a fake fur and taxidermied coyote
purchased by the prop department were used. They were smeared
with stage blood and made up to look real. Dead animals on
display in a gas station window are plastic.
