R.I.P. Gunnar Hansen 1947-2015:

R.I.P. - Horror icon Gunnar Hansen has died from pancreatic cancer.. His fate as a horror legend was sealed when he was cast as the chainsaw wielding Leatherface in the 1974 classic The Texas Chain Saw Massacre..

He appeared in several sci-fi horror films over the past few decades, including one of my favorite horror comedy's' Brutal Massacre: A Comedy'... Gunnar did return to the franchise that made him famous in 2013's 'Texas Chainsaw 3D' - He was set to appear in the thriller 'The Gathering', along with Simon Pegg, Lin Shaye, Jeffrey Combs, Bill Moseley, Doug Bradley and Robert Englund...
