Regardless that this is a prequel so we know that Leatherface is going to survive and therefore lacks any suspense at all, as a movie Leatherface is all over the place with references to what comes later shoehorned in — like the blink - and - you'll - miss - it
appearance of Grandpa in the opening scenes and the character
of Hartman (the unscrupulous Mayor in Texas
Chainsaw 3D was called Hartman, in case you'd forgotten)-- and details that just don't make sense, such as Drayton being portrayed as a psychopathic killer but yet in Tobe Hooper's original movie he «takes no pleasure in killing», and three people climbing into a cow's carcass to hide from the police which looks as dumb as it sounds.
Barry Bostwick (The Rocky Horror Picture Show) and directors John Landis (An American Werewolf in London) and Joe Dante (Gremlins) are among the big names who make cameo
appearances in Tales
of Halloween, alongside Caroline Williams (Texas
Chainsaw Massacre 2, Rob Zombie's Halloween II), Lin Shaye (Insidious), and Adrienne Barbeau (Escape From New York, The Fog).
