Arrow Video has announced the release of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 directed by the legendary Tobe Hooper as a limited edition 4K UHD or Blu ray.
Relocating the cannibalistic Sawyers to a cavernous labyrinth beneath an amusement park, Hooper’s deliciously demented sequel sees local DJ Stretch running afoul of them when she gets mixed up in the brutal slaying of two youngsters. Meanwhile, Lieutenant “Lefty” Enright is hell-bent on avenging the murder of his nephew Franklin, who perished in the original massacre.
In 1974, Tobe Hooper changed the face of horror with his landmark film The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. But it wouldn’t be until 1986 that the buzz came back… in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2!
