Brad Fuller talks

While on the set of "The Amityville Horror" remake, Fuller told Zap2it.com some of the secrets of the much-anticipated prequel to the "Massacre" story which is based loosely on serial killer Ed Gein. The prequel to "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" will explore the family of Leatherface, and how the creepy murderous family became serial killers.

"It won't have any of the young actors from the first (like Jessica Biehl), this is a prequel, but there will be a group of teen and young adults in their 20s who make an unfortunate decision to end up in this town.". The team hopes to explain the story of the murderous family. "The old man had no legs, we hope to answer questions about that." Fuller explains. "We hope that you'd eventually be able to watch the two movies together and it will explain a lot of questions that were unanswered."

It's not clear if the actor playing Leatherface will reprise his role, "It's a very physical part." Fuller says. A lot of that will depend on how the actors negotiate, because they want to keep all their movie budgets below $20 million. Fuller does hope, however, to encourage actor Arly Ermy, the creepy sheriff, to come back. "He elevated that movie in much the same way as Philip Baker Hall does with 'Amityville,' " says Fuller. "The Amityville Horror" stars Ryan Reynolds and Melissa George and is expected for release on April 15, 2005.
