A few months ago I did some research, and found that Leather Face was based on a real person named Ed Gein. Later, I visited another site and read that the director of the movie said that a legend was created among the people. He said while in he was in a mall he thought about the fastest way to clear all the people out. Then he saw some chainsaws in a hardware store. And that is where the idea for Leather Face, chainsaw wielding maniac was born. Then there is the footage at the end of the film. Is that real or fake? Can anybody who knows clear this up for me please. Thanks
Yes, Actaully they father and son are still alive (LISTENED TO THE Talk RADIO ABOUT 3ys ago or so..) about 75-100 miles apart
the son i guess is so drugged out and stuff at a asylum a 5 yr old could lead him around... np lol
Father I think is in prison.. both in texas... Yes its true though Hope i could help.
I guess the radio host, got ahold of this guy that worked down there somewhere.. but thats all i can say..
This is blatantly incorrect, it's been established by everyone with any sort of credibility in the matter that Leatherface is LOOSELY based on the serial killer Ed Gein.

You know that Buffalo Bill was based off of several serial killers not just one, so was Lecter for that matter. Yeah and trust these guys on the fact that Leather face isn't a real person. He was extremely loosely based off of Ed Gein.
