New TEXAS CHAINSAW and DON’T BREATHE Movies are Insane & Crazy

Producer Fede Alvarez’s new Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Don’t Breathe movies hit later this year. And today, Alvarez teases they are both “pretty insane and crazy.”

He tells Discussing Film: “Don’t Breathe 2 and also this year Texas Chainsaw Massacre will be coming out, which is also fantastic. Both movies… I think we’re all craving for that horror experience again in a theater, to be surrounded with people and get the best. So I think that these two movies, hopefully, will be my contribution this year for the world of horror fans. Just to go bananas in the theater watching them, because both of them are pretty insane and crazy.”

He adds: “They’re pretty out there when it comes to horror movies. So fans will get a lot this year with those films. Hopefully by the time they come out, the world would have gone back to normal and we’ll get together in a theater and go crazy.”

Sounds good to us!

The new Chainsaw Massacre is a continuation of Tobe Hooper’s 1974 horror classic and marks the return of Leatherface, re-introducing one of the most iconic villains of the horror genre to a whole new generation. The film recently wrapped production.

Alvarez (Evil Dead, Don’t Breathe), Rodolfo Sayagues, Kim Henkel (co-writer of the 1974 film), Ian Henkel, and Pat Cassidy produce. Chris Devlin penned the script.

Golden Globe award nominee Elsie Fisher (Castle Rock) stars with Sarah Yarkin (Happy Death Day 2U), Mark Burnham (Wrong Cops), Moe Dunford (The Dig), Olwen Fouéré (Mandy), Alice Krige (Star Trek), Jacob Latimore (The Maze Runner), Nell Hudson (Victoria), Jessica Allain (The Laundromat), Sam Douglas (Snatch), William Hope (Dark Shadows), and Jolyon Coy (War & Peace).

Original directors Andy & Ryan Tohill left over creative differences a week into shooting. Garcia quickly stepped in and re-shot from scratch. Garcia hails from Texas and is an Emmy-winning director-cinematographer. His debut Tejano was shot for just $58K and hit HBO. He has also shot commercials for Verizon and Firestone.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is expected to rip into theaters later this year.
