In the dozen years since the original massacre, countless more people have vanished without a trace and, despite fears from the locals that Leatherface and his family of cannibals have resumed their murderous ways, the police seem disinterested in looking into the disappearances. But everything changes when a couple of yuppies are attacked by Leatherface while calling into a local radio show hosted by DJ Vanita “Stretch” Brock, thus blasting their ghastly murders over the airways. Fed up with the inaction from local law enforcement, ex-lawman Lt. “Lefty” Enright decides to go rogue and sets out into Texas Hill Country in a bid to finally put an end to the terror which has been gripping his community. Meanwhile, Leatherface sets his sights, and chainsaw, on Stretch…
Director Tobe Hooper's (Eaten Alive, Poltergeist) sequel to his own 1974 masterpiece, THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE 2 is a wild, outrageous, and unbelievably gory mix of southern fried terror and surreal humor. Starring Dennis Hopper (Easy Rider, Blue Velvet), Bill Moseley (House of 1000 Corpses), Caroline Williams (Rob Zombie’s Halloween II), and Bill Johnson (The American Scream) as Leatherface, THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE 2 has gained legendary status as the wildest and bloodiest entry in the franchise, so gruesome that Cannon Films chose to release it unrated to avoid needing to censor its nearly non-stop carnage, courtesy of effects master Tom Savini (Dawn of the Dead). Vinegar Syndrome is proud to bring this quintessential 80s horror classic to 4K UHD, newly scanned and restored from the never-before-accessed for home video 35mm original camera negative and featuring hours of both newly shot and archival extras!

"Very nice Newley commissioned artwork of the slipcover I like the artwork on back the slipcover with holding 2 fingers up pretty cool nice feature length documentary on film cast and crew also great make up special effects from Tom Savani as well which was great"
"Yes, I had to double dip for the variant slip. I already picked up the limited edition slipcase for this remaster, but when I saw the variant was on sale I just had to grab it. This is a classic movie and a must-have. If you are reading this review because you are on the fence, just get it! This is the definitive release for quality transfer, great restoration and extras, plus the new slipcover is fantastic so get it before it's too late!"
"As always, VS produces a top notch chop top quality product! The restoration of the film is excellent, special features are great and the overall packaging and art are superb."
"This is another great release from VS that I highly recommend over other labels. You get the most complete version of the film and the packaging is outstanding. So much original artwork and embossing comes with this release. As far as the film goes - there’s a chainsaw fight in it. An actual chainsaw fight."
"Tobe went whole hog on his sequel, with more, darker humor, more grisly effects, and more saw! With stand out performances from Mosley as Choptop TCS2 delivers a sequel with teeth! The new extras fully pad out the Shout Factory legacies, the slip is delicious (no box here) theres nothing to complain about, so lick my plate!"
"Knocked my socks off. Seriously one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen. Athe new slip is great and it contains some of the best extras I’ve encountered. Still working my way through them. There are hours of informative interviews and even some feature length docs!"
"Unlike the original, TCM2 trades fright for over-the-top gore, dark comedy, and chaotic fun. Though the ending is abrupt, Hooper’s style makes it a cult classic. Restoration looks great, as always."
"This film is a masterpiece of 1980s. The restoration is fantastic. And I always enjoy the supplements from vinegar syndrome. Purchase if you’re a fan."
"When I first saw this film, I was not expecting the shift in tone and originally did not care for it. Many years later it has definitely grown on me and now enjoy it for what it is. The audio and video quality are excellent. Movie B+ VS Release A+"
"One of my favorite movies and simply the look of the movie is great and the audio is pretty good."
