PhotosMovie by Joey Paur

Last week a new poster was released for Texas Chainsaw 3D showing off several different human leather faces worn by the horror movie icon. Today, thanks to STYD, we bring you a new photo from the film featuring Leatherface lurking around in the dark with his chainsaw.

The movie centers on a young woman named Heather who discovers that she's a direct descendent of the crazy Sawyer family from Tobe Hooper's original film, and she goes back to Newt Texas to learn a little more about her family history. As a fan of the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre, I'm kind of excited to see how this one turns out. 

Here's the synopsis:

Lionsgate’s TEXAS CHAINSAW 3D continues the legendary story of the homicidal Sawyer family, picking up where Tobe Hooper’s 1974 horror classic left off in Newt, Texas, where for decades people went missing without a trace.  The townspeople long suspected the Sawyer family, owners of a local barbeque pit, were somehow responsible.  Their suspicions were finally confirmed one hot summer day when a young woman escaped the Sawyer house following the brutal murders of her four friends.  Word around the small town 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…

Several of the original cast members from the first movie are returning for this one including John Dugan who will reprise his role as Grandfather and Marilyn Burns, Bill Moseley and Gunnar Hansen. It also stars Alexandra Daddario, Tania Raymonde, Sue Rock, Scott Eastwood, Trey Songz, Keram Malicki-Sanchez, Shaun Sipos, Thom Barry, Paul Rae and Richard Riehle.  

The movie will be released on January 4th, 2013.
