Leatherface's Backstory Explained

Like so many horror franchises, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre started out as a modest, low-budget film with a mysterious killer, but it quickly turned into a series with complicated backstories and contradictory timelines. Leatherface is the iconic killer in the Texas Chainsaw franchise, and multiple films have attempted to explain his backstory.
One is the 2006 film The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning, which is a direct prequel to the 2003 remake, while the other is 2017’s Leatherface, which works as a prequel to the original 1974 film. Let’s take a look at the various explanations of Leatherface’s creepy backstory.

Do you think any of the sequels/prequels can hang with the original Texas Chain Saw Massacre?

[@elitehuntersden6562]

Absolutely, the original film depicted something unique but I think there's a different twist of the Texas Chainsaw in all of them, including Leatherface's new take in 2017.

[@kraigowaffles2110]

The 2017 Leatherface that you spent so much time on is pretty much hated, disregarded and ignored by the horror community because it was such an insult to the character and franchise. It did the same for Leatherface as Rob Zombie's Halloween did for Michael Myers. He quit being scary once you gave a reason why they were the way they are. Once you gave them the A typical serial killer childhood. I.e. abusive family, teased at school, etc.

[@rip_ash]

So in short: Leatherface was always the victim. He acts the way he does because of his family's constant pressure over him to be just like them. I think deep down, he does have remorse over the people he murders but he's too afraid to revolt against his family.

[@chrisricketts8059]

Based on the first one, I think he has a developmental disability so they could manipulate him. In that one, he isn't really verbal. I think the family made him what they wanted him to be.

Now he just does it because there really is no point anymore.

Only in the second movie were they named - in a script not written by Tobe Hooper. I personally prefer the version without names, as it is more basic and somewhat mysterious.

I liked the original masks due to how real they look. The skin was thin, dry and often very worn looking. All the new masks look way to dense, really wet looking and far too leathery.

The chainsaw dance at the end is classic and scary as any blood n guts torture. You don't need to show 50 gallons of blood or 20 heads... its about the story and acting.

[@armintor2826]

Ive heard that the dance wasnt even in the script, it was just Gunnar celebrating the end of an extremely difficult to get through movie. And at the end he even threw the chainsaw at the recording team, but no one was hurt. Dont quote me on that though as i cant confirm it. Just a story i heard once. Though i do think it was the best scene in the film, really did a great job at showing how detached Leatherface is mentally when he just forgets about the woman entirely and starts dancing

[@a.jthomas6132]

While Gunner Hansen’s Leatherface portray as the guard dog/killer for the Sawyer, Andrew Bryniarski‘s take on Thomas Hewitt portray as more of a victim-turn-predatory. The 2003 reboot and it’s prequel has given some interesting on the most iconic horror villains we have today!

In the 2006 prequel, the Hewitt family was pretty much "normal" the only exception being Charlie "Hoyt" Hewitt. As the story goes he was a Korean War veteran having fought in that conflict and be taken prisoner by the North Koreans along with his unit in 1952. The North Koreans brought them to a brutal POW camp during the dead of winter and starved everyone. The winter was so bad that rations were extremely scarce or non existent that one by one the people in his unit began dying of starvation along with the North Koreans as well. He was desperate to eat something that he had no choice but to resort to cannibalism in order to survive. He ate everyone that died and it was during that moment that he was eating them that he came to like the taste of human flesh. Fast foward to the events of July 1969 and Leatherface lost his job at the slaughterhouse due to the plant being condemned and shut down by the Texas health department. When this occurred everyone in the Hewitt's hometown packed up and left leaving them as the only remaining inhabitants of the town. Consequently what ended up happening was that once the slaughterhouse was shut down they not only lost their jobs but more importantly they just lost their only source of food. Hence the reason why you heard Charlie Hewitt mention in the 2006 film at the dinner table with the family saying quote "that slaughterhouse been more to this town than them fools will ever know". So yeah that's what led them to begin their path of death and cannibalism. It all started with Charlie Hewitt. He was soley responsible for the events that took place between 1969 and 1973 in both the 2003 and 2006 films. Truly horrifying.

Ed Gein is one of the only serial killers to use a gun...he was a product killer, not a process killer. Last podcast on the left does a great couple episodes on him!

When I was a little kid my parents always let me watch whatever movies I wanted too. And on sick days from school a trip to the video store usually followed. I got Texas Chainsaw because at that time in the 80’s I was obsessed with Horror Movies. But this was beyond a movie to me, it was so Lo-Fi and all the actors seemed like real life freaks. It really moved me emotionally not like crying or anything but real fear! I don’t think anything really scared me before this film. There were no aliens or monsters it was just a beyond fucked up family living in its own reality and once you became intertwined with them you were done.

It's weird how the cook is the older brother and father to nubbins chop top and leatherface I wish they'd give a good backstory to the grandmother in the attic and grandpa when they were young and he worked at the slaughterhouse.
