The previous episodes of our video series Real Slashers have looked at movies that are often celebrated by slasher fans, whether it be classic originals like My Bloody Valentine and The Burning or beloved sequels like Jason Lives: Friday the 13th Part VI and Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers. But with the latest episode we’re doing something a little different. The movie we’re looking at isn’t very popular, but it is an entry in a popular franchise. It’s Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation (watch it HERE), a movie so bizarre that we’ve even done a WTF Happened to This Horror Movie? episode on it. Now you can see Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation get the Real Slashers treatment in the video embedded above.
Written and directed by Kim Henkel, co-writer of the original The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, this one has the following synopsis:
After leaving their prom early, innocent Jenny and three other teenagers crash their car in the backwoods of Texas. In their search for help, they run into Vilmer, a vicious psychopath with a mechanical leg, and his twisted family, including the serial killer Leatherface. As the group of friends struggle to survive the maniacal methods of torture, Jenny discovers the secret origins behind the family’s lust for blood.

Here’s what Real Slashers is all about:
Ahhh the 80’s. A simpler time where the blood ran red, the boobies swung freely, and the weed was copiously smoked. A time where rampant killers were simply excuses for excessive sex and over the top murder. Yes, we’re looking at an era where the slasher movie ran wild over cinemas everywhere. Today, we’re looking at “Real Slashers.”
The show is Written, Narrated, and Edited by Tyler Nichols, Produced by John Fallon, and Executive Produced by Berge Garabedian.
