I've found some time to compile some really great info about the locations used in TCM 2.  Go to the sequels section and click on the link for TCM 2.

Some extremely rare items recently went up on eBay for sale, and they're from Dr. Barnes, the doctor who did Grandpa's makeup on the original film.  Read below on previous news I posted about his very rare photos he submitted to this web site and the stories behind his experience during the filming.  This auction was for the original molds taken of John Dugan to create the latex appliances.  They did not sell.  As eBay does, that link will only work for a finite period of time until the auction is deleted from their database.

Lance sent in his pic of his Kemper mask from the 2003 remake film.  Go to the Fan Foto section, click on Costumes and Masks, and look under his name Lance.

I have posted some great pictures and information provided to me by Dr. W.E. Barnes MD, the doctor who did the Grandpa makeup in the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre film.  Click HERE to go to the Behind the Scenes section, and scroll down.

I have also opened a new section of my obese web site for the TCM sequels.  It's a stepping stone to posting the great pics and information I've been given about TCM 2 which has yet to be posted there.  That is still coming soon and it's all under construction.

Hello again!  Life has taken some unexpected turns in our lives.  But it's time to get back to all things Chainsaw.  Here's some updates for you.

There are quite a few new submissions to the Fan Foto section.  Check out Nick Lombardo in the cast members section, Larry New sent in more pics of his collections for the memorabilia section, Chappy Taylor sent in a great rare pic of Tobe Hooper sitting in Grandpa's chair on the 2nd floor - it's in the memorabilia section, Bryan Pears took a bunch of photos from his tour of the TCM film locations - you can see his pics in the locations section, Robbie Inman sent in some pics of Ed Neal when he met him March 5th & 6th, 2005 and they're posted to the cast members section, and Wes Vance shows off his collection of Marilyn Burns autographs in the memorabilia section.

A TCM fan posted a memorial to Paul's memory on their web site.  The link is posted at the bottom of my memorial to Paul on this page.

On the next update (hopefully tomorrow or in the next few days), I'll be posting some NEVER BEFORE SEEN BEHIND THE SCENES PICTURES OF JOHN DUGAN GETTING MADE UP IN GRANDPA'S MAKEUP and other pics provided to me by Dr. Barnes, who is credited for making the mask in the original movie.  Also, some great info about where TCM 2 was filmed and newspaper articles.  So stay tuned!
