Leatherface: The Chainsaw Massacre III
Leatherface is a mindless mix of foul language and unbridled, bloody violence. A family of sadistic cannibals patrol a lonely stretch of Texas road where they hunt their victims. The victims are then brought back to the family homestead where they are sadistically tortured before being killed and dismembered to provide meat for the table. This is not an Ozzie and Harriet household These people are totally crazy. Anyone abhorring blood, gore and violence will not want to see this picture.
