It appears that French filmmakers Alexandre Bustillo and Julian Maury are close to signing on to direct the next installment of the Texas Chainsaw franchise... In case you didn't know this is the same duo behind 2007's extremely brutal flick 'INSIDE'...
The story will center around on a young teenage Leatherface’s and finds the boy on the run from a mental institution with a pack of other maniacs.. The film is being titled 'Leatherface', for now.. Anyways it is not known at this time if Lionsgate will be back to distribute...
I think this is one stupid idea, we don't need a film based on Leatherface's The Wonder Years, no more than we needed to see a young punk ass Michael Myers running around causing mischief and mayhem... This is nothing but a money grab by the producers and the studio..
But I will say this - if anyone can save this film from being another shit stain on the franchise, it will be Alexandre Bustillo and Julian Maury... Btw Dennis Widmyer and Kevin Kolsch are also being consider to direct, but Bustillo/Maury are the front runners...
