Fans were then treated to one of the largest Chain Saw reunions ever with twelves guests appearing at this year’s Texas Frightmare Weekend this past May.

 

Throughout the summer and fall, fans of THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE will continue to be treated with special appearances and fan panels at various events acrossst the country.

 

In August, the restored film will premiere at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City, where it is a part of the revered institution's permanent collection. This weeklong presentation opens on August 8, when members of the film’s creative team, including screenwriter Kim Henkel, cinematographer Daniel Pearl, actress Teri McMinn, and production manager Ron Bozman, will join curator Ron Magliozzi and Caryn Coleman, founder of The Future of Film Is Female, to discuss The Texas Chain Saw Massacre’s production and legacy.
