This year marks the 50th anniversary of Tobe Hooper’s horror classic The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and Dark Sky Films is celebrating with a massive new physical media set.
Now available for pre-order, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre: 50th Anniversary Chainsaw Edition includes the 4K UHD edition of the feature film, Blu-ray edition of the feature film, Blu-ray bonus disc, and an exclusive VHS release featuring original VHS release artwork!
