New Texas Chainsaw
Massacre
There will be a new instalment to the Texas
Chainsaw Massacre franchise thanks to Legendary Pictures. And if it all
goes according to plan, Fede Alvarez, who helmed the Evil Dead remake in 2013 may be the one to produce the new horror
flick. Although details are tight lipped
at the moment, the new film will reportedly be a direct sequel to the 1974
classic. That original American slasher film directed by Tobe Hopper depicted a
group of youths who get attacked by a deformed chainsaw-wielding lunatic.

Mensch returning as showrunners. The current season of GLOW had an open ended finale with some of the core characters off
