This year marks the 50th anniversary of Tobe Hooper’s horror classic The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and Dark Sky Films is celebrating with a massive new physical media set.

Now available for pre-order, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre: 50th Anniversary Chainsaw Edition includes the 4K UHD edition of the feature film, Blu-ray edition of the feature film, Blu-ray bonus disc, and an exclusive VHS release featuring original VHS release artwork!

Dark Sky further previews, “All are housed in a replica of the iconic chain saw from the film, which comes in a special 50th Anniversary numbered box. Opening the chainsaw triggers the sound of Leatherface wielding the chainsaw in the film.”

This limited edition also features a newly designed 50th Anniversary O-card and brand-new bonus content, including The Merchandise of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and The Restoration of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.

    I know that physical releases are having a moment, but a VHS? Really? That’s one format I’m happy to leave in my childhood.

    Earlier in the year I found a cardboard box housed copy of The Matrix. The tape was still shrink wrapped inside and unplayed. I regret not buying that now. Not too watch but just stick on a shelf. The cover art was really nice.

    That VHS could be blank and I doubt anyone would ever know!

          My friend and I did have to bring together my keyboard and his power pack but the main hassle was finding a tape player.
