May home entertainment release for Texas Chainsaw

txs_chainsaw_retail_dvd2dLionsgate’s Texas Chainsaw its sequel to the 1974 movie classic The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, comes to DVD and Blu-ray next month.

Picking up directly where Tobe Hooper’s terrifying 1974 classic ended, the film sees the townspeople take dramatic action against the Sawyer family.

They had long suspected that the family was responsible for several mysterious disappearances and had their suspicions confirmed when a young woman escaped the house.

Word of the murders quickly spread, and a vigilante mob of enraged locals surrounded the Sawyer stronghold, burning it to the ground and killing every last member of the family – or so they thought.



Decades later and hundreds of miles away from the original massacre, a young woman named Heather learns that she has inherited a Texas estate from a grandmother she never knew she had. 

After embarking on a road trip with friends to uncover her roots, she finds she is the sole owner of a lavish, isolated Victorian mansion. But her newfound wealth comes at a price as she stumbles upon a horror that awaits her in the mansion’s dank cellars…
