Texas Chainsaw 3D trailers get remixed

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

Here’s another situation where I can’t tell if something’s really, really bad or just an amusing novelty. Whatever it is, DJ Mike Relm has taken the trailer footage of TEXAS CHAINSAW 3D and recut it as a music video called “Welcome To Texas.”

As you can probably tell by the title, the video takes that super cheesy Tania Raymonde “Welcome to Texas, motherf—er” line and makes it the song’s chorus. Accompanying chainsaw vrooms, screams, and gunshot noises make up most of the track’s actual beats. If you’re some sort of TCM purist who doesn’t appreciate fan made YouTube videos of Leatherface chasing Marilyn Burns (see below) down to Skrillex songs, I’d probably refrain from hitting the play button.

As for the rest of you, I suggest you enjoy the video’s goofiness. Remember back in the early aughts when MTV would mash-up horror movie footage with bad techno to promote whatever Z-level teen slasher was hitting theaters that weekend? “Welcome To Texas” is in that mostly harmless, “playing to the younger crowd” vein. If you’re hitting the club there are worst numbers to throw down to… probably. I think. Anyway, check out the remixed trailer below and stay on the lookout for TEXAS CHAINSAW 3D, in theaters January 4th.
