![]() ![]() Jenny, running around alone at this point, runs into Leatherface and, eventually, is brought back to the house herself where she kinda-sorta learns the true history of the family, who couldn't be happier to have her for dinner.ĭemented is the word that comes to mind when trying to figure out how to describe this absolutely bonkers film. Before you know it, Heather and Barry have wandered off alone and found a house full of crazed cannibals, a transvestite in a human skin mask called Leatherface (Robert Jacks) and his brother W.E. ![]() He shows up in his pickup at the scene of the accident, kills the other driver and then tries to kill Sean who wisely makes a break for it.
