Texas Chainsaw 3D is a 2013 sequel to the 1974 film, and it is in no way connected to the remake.The film begins with the Sawyers being killed and their family homestead being burned down shortly after the first film... except for one infant, who is rescued by one of the townspeople and taken in as part of the Miller family. And with that, Edith Sawyer becomes Heather Miller, who decades later, learns that she inherited a mansion from her biological grandmother. She goes there with her friend and boyfriend and they learn the hard way that Leatherface is still alive. Pretty soon, the townspeople learn the truth as well and decide to take their vendetta to Heather herself.A prequel called Leatherface was released in 2017 which delves into Leatherface's life during his late teens. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything?: Lots of phallic shots of Leatherface's chainsaw, especially as it destroys a van. The shot as Leatherface stabs a kneeling cop... from behind... | |

The Cameo | |
| Texas Chainsaw 3D / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: Gunnar Hansen who played Leatherface in the original film has a cameo as "Boss Sawyer". Bill Moseley, known mainly to horror fans as 'Chop-Top' from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 and Otis B. Driftwood from House of 1000 Corpses and The Devil's Rejects, is Drayton Sawyer. Marilyn Burns appears as Verna, and John Dugan briefly reprises his role as Grandpa in the opening. | |

Poor Communication Kills | |
| Texas Chainsaw 3D / int_1c445e86 | comment |
Poor Communication Kills: Mr. Farnsworth only told Heather the letter was "very important" and to make sure she read it, though he did stress this three times. But he didn't place any special emphasis on doing so immediately. Heather also didn't make sure she read the letter ASAP. As a result, well. . . the movie happened. | |

Ironic Echo: "Can't get around the Good Book." First time it's spoken by Burt to Sheriff Hooper to justify the mob killing all the Sawyers, "An eye for an eye." The second time, it's said by Sheriff Hooper when he refuses to stop Leatherface and Heather from killing Burt, taking their own "eye for an eye." | |

Anachronism Stew | |
| Texas Chainsaw 3D / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: During the scene where Heather learns about her real family, we clearly see the first film is set in 1973, seemingly placing this film in the late 1990s... except the dates on the tombstones explicitly set this film in 2012 (plus we have camera-phones). So, there's a degree of Ass Pull trying to make it seem like the first movie took place more recently than it obviously did, unless we're supposed to believe that Heather is at least 39 years old. (Even then, there's the many characters who haven't aged a day since August 19, 1973.) The date of death on all the Sawyer tombstones conveniently have the year obscured and everyone seems to be going out of their way to not mention what year "August 19th" was, except from one incredibly brief moment on the police record (which also screwed up listing it as "August 18th"). | |

That Man Is Dead: However, after the climax, she drops her Heather Miller adoptive identity, and she was back on her birthright as being Edith Rose Sawyer, the next caretaker for Leatherface. | |

Even Evil Has Standards: Leatherface decides to spare Heather the minute he realizes she's related to him. Also, despite being a murderous bastard, it is noticeable he only goes after those who tresspassed the mansion grounds or previously harmed his family: When Heather flees to the amusement park, he chases after her, but doesn't even try to harm any of the bystanders. | |

Overdrawn at the Blood Bank | |
| Texas Chainsaw 3D / int_3346eb29 | comment |
Overdrawn at the Blood Bank: Leatherface drags one of his victims note POSSIBLY two, one still alive with some wounds, to be technical down a length of road, up a lengthy driveway (so lengthy you can't see the house it leads to from the road), into a house, and down deep into the house's sizable basement, all while leaving a clear one-two foot wide trail of blood for a later character to follow all the way, the trail barely shrinking in size, if at all, the whole way. To make things even more ridiculous, said victim had been decapitated and Leatherface had left the site of the corpse to give chase to someone else and returned later, hence suggesting that the victim still had enough blood to do that after bleeding out from such a severe wound for possibly over HALF AN HOUR. | |

Disproportionate Retribution: Mayor Hartman decides that Heather has to die for simply being related to the Sawyers. Granted, it is technically her fault Leatherface is back on the loose, but only because she left a random hitchhiker alone in her new house and didn't read the very important letter from the woman who willed the house, and responsibility for Leatherface, to her. But he doesn't actually know that. | |

Idiot Ball: The movie is filled with them. Where to start? The first: Heather not reading the letter from her grandmother she was specifically instructed to could have saved everyone a lot of trouble. Related, the lawyer could have emphasized it was important to read the letter immediately, not "whenever you get around to it." Sure, he stressed that she should read it, but not within any kind of timeframe. The second: The kids all go into town to get supplies for their party, leaving the random hitchhiker they just met alone in a giant house filled with all kinds of valuables, and then have the nerve to act surprised when they return to find he's stolen everything of value that wasn't nailed down. Oh, and he let Leatherface out. The third: Hiding in the coffin that was pretty obviously dug up by Leatherface himself, which he left open, hoping he won't find you there. He does, and now you're trapped in a space impossible to escape from while he chainsaws through it. The fourth: Electing to ram a heavy iron gate, wrecking your vehicle, instead of waiting for it to open automatically when you have enough of a lead on the chainsaw-wielding maniac that waiting for the gate costs you nothing. The mayor ordering an overzealous cop to secure a probably crime scene and suspect? Dubious, but okay. The Sheriff raising no more than a token objection before allowing himself to be shouted down then sitting by to watch the whole thing play out? Unlikely. Not ordering any other officers to head for the house to offer backup, even if they won't get there in time? This trope. One with positive consequences: Leatherface creeps up behind a Bound and Gagged Heather, but opts not to kill her from there. Instead he slowly circles around in front of her, finally fires up his chainsaw, preparing cut her open straight through the chest. This allows him to see her Sawyer-pendant scar, leading to him ungagging her so she can confirm she's his cousin, and finally them working together to get revenge on Burt Hartman. | |

Asshole Victim | |
| Texas Chainsaw 3D / int_8ed5c6e4 | comment |
Asshole Victim: Almost everyone who is killed except Kenny. To wit: Nikki and Ryan, Heather's best friend and boyfriend respectively, who were having sex behind her back (Ryan was trying to resist Nikki's advances, although not particularly strenuously). Darryl, who proceeds to loot Heather's new house the first chance he gets and inadvertently lets Leatherface loose. Burt Hartman and his cronies, who participated in the slaughter of the Sawyers and seek to finish the job with Heather and Leatherface. Even the Red Shirt cop who responded to alarm at the Carson house is too gung-ho for his own good, ignores the orders of his immediate superior (the Sheriff) to follow those of the mayor, and seems positively gleeful at the prospect of being the man to bring down Leatherface and finish the Sawyer clan off for good. And since he got a call on his radio to come to the slaughterhouse (allowing Leatherface to figure out where Heather was), it's pretty clear he was down with the whole "murder all the Sawyers and keep it quiet" agenda. | |

Canon Discontinuity: Acts as a direct sequel to the original, thus negating the events of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 which had the original family moving underground to a Texas carnival and Drayton Sawyer still being a public presence in the community with his chili. Ironically, this film still uses the Sawyer names, an element introduced in the original sequel. | |

Viewers Are Morons: The newspaper in which Heather catches up on the story of the Swayers is dated August 19th, which is the date the events occurred. Apparently, the filmmakers didn't think we'd make the connection if the paper had been correctly dated August 20th (since newspapers can't print news before it happens). Likely also the reason for the egregious blood trail noted above. | |

| Texas Chainsaw 3D / int_dc579c91 | comment |
Contrived Coincidence: When Carl is tying up Heather in the slaughterhouse, she kicks him in the leg, making him lose his balance and tear her shirt open. Then the officer Leatherface killed gets a radio call to come to the slaughterhouse because Burt and his crew are going to take care of Heather there, and Leatherface just so happens to be pushing the car into the barn to overhear this. When Leatherface arrives, Heather has been left conveniently alone by the vicious men who want to kill her, and he creeps up behind her, opts not to kill her from behind, instead resting his inactive chainsaw in her shoulder to let her know he's there. He then walks around in front of her while she screams through her duct tape gag, turns on the chainsaw, and has it within inches of her breastbone before he notices her Sawyer-pendant scar. This finally leads to the reunion of the last two surviving Sawyers. | |

Despair Event Horizon | |
| Texas Chainsaw 3D / int_dda99fa8 | comment |
Despair Event Horizon: Part of what figures in Heather's Face–Heel Turn: She hast lost all of her friends, her adoptive parents are abusive assholes, her other family is dead (minus Leatherface), and the town is bent on murdering her for no actual reason. She breaks under the pressure. | |

Absurdly Sharp Blade: Leatherface's chainsaws can cut through everything. Including but not limited to a car's carcass and a thick metal chain. | |

Manchild: Leatherface gets a lot of sympathy points for being portrayed as very innocent and child-like. | |

Tragic Monster: Leatherface is essentially a orphan child in a grown man's body killing not out of malice, but instinct. | |

Bound and Gagged | |
| Texas Chainsaw 3D / int_eb28ab57 | comment |
One with positive consequences: Leatherface creeps up behind a Bound and Gagged Heather, but opts not to kill her from there. Instead he slowly circles around in front of her, finally fires up his chainsaw, preparing cut her open straight through the chest. This allows him to see her Sawyer-pendant scar, leading to him ungagging her so she can confirm she's his cousin, and finally them working together to get revenge on Burt Hartman. | |

Easily Forgiven | |
| Texas Chainsaw 3D / int_f36c4f98 | comment |
Easily Forgiven: It seems Heather completely forgives Leatherface for trying to murder her and killing all her friends as soon as she finds out he's her cousin. However, it can be argued that she knows it is partially her fault that Leatherface was let loose to go on a rampage. If she had read her grandmother's letter first, most of the deaths would probably have been avoided. Also, she gets the chance to read the police reports for August 19th, and saw that whatever the Sawyers had done, extralegal vigilante justice and being slaughtered every man, woman and babe (save Heather herself and Leatherface) was not a just fate. So several of the dead people brought it on themselves. | |
