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!

"The Quality of this 4K release is excellent, giving the film’s color, grime, and madness a real boost without making it look too clean. The Material is still wild: louder, funnier, and more unhinged than the original in a way that totally works. For me, this is a cult Masterpiece, and Vinegar Syndrome treated it like one."
"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"
"If you're the type of old school slasher movie fan that has to own the entire collection of fanchises you love, this movie is a must-have! While not as dark or serious as the original TCM, this one knows exactly what it is. . . a tongue in cheek type of "what the hell are we gonna do next" kind of humor. While Dennis Hopper gives this role his unique touch, you can't help but get the feeling everyone else knew this was a fun project. Bill Mosely's "Chop Top" is NOT to be missed! The movie has been remastered and the picture and sound quality are amazing! For fans of DVD extras, (special features, behind the scenes, outtakes and more), you will not be disappointed!"
"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!"
"Actually as great as the first one but for completely different reasons. There's whole sequences here that still today are jaw-dropping. And the final image is a banger. Phenomenal restoration and extras, btw."
"Love the slip cover art and the classic breakfast club poster. An insert is always welcome but not mandatory. Dennis hopper is kinda the man even if he's totally not."
"The Restoration looks absolutely gorgeous, packaging is fantastic, and the features are excellent, I’ve never owned any VS releases until I decided to take part in the most recent sale. You guys do excellent work, I will most definitely be buying more titles from you guys."
"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."
"I've had many copies of this over the decades and it has never looked this spectacular, absolutely definitive edition of this legendary comedic masterpiece! Endlessly quotable, mad as a bag of spiders, amazing gore effects and sets, a total banger of a soundtrack, phenomenal performances from everyone involved, what more could you want?"
"One of my favorite 80s horror movies with a beautiful restoration and slipcover"
