Exclusive Taste of Netflix’s ‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre’ Score from ‘Hereditary’ Composer Colin Stetson!

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise roars back to life this Friday with Netflix‘s brand new movie, and today we’ve been treated to a taste of the new movie’s gnarly soundtrack.

Fresh off horror films Hereditary and Color Out of Space, Colin Stetson composed the score for the new Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and you can listen to a complete track below!

The track is titled “Sledgehammer,” and it’s a chaotic listen that manages to pitch perfectly channel the madness of the Chainsaw franchise.

“This one comes as close to encapsulating the entirety and extremity of this score as a whole as any, from wailing aggression to sorrowful defeat, and ending on some of the most maniacal lunacy I’ve ever used in film,” Stetson tells Bloody Disgusting.

Old Man Leatherface slices his way onto Netflix on February 18.

The new movie is a decades-later sequel only to Tobe Hooper’s original Texas Chain Saw Massacre, with actress Olwen Fouéré (Mandy) taking over the iconic role of Sally Hardesty from the late Marilyn Burns. Here’s the full official synopsis for the new movie…

“After nearly 50 years of hiding, Leatherface returns to terrorize a group of idealistic young friends who accidentally disrupt his carefully shielded world in a remote Texas town.”

“Melody (Sarah Yarkin), her teenage sister Lila (Elsie Fisher), and their friends Dante (Jacob Latimore) and Ruth (Nell Hudson), head to the remote town of Harlow, Texas to start an idealistic new business venture. But their dream soon turns into a waking nightmare when they accidentally disrupt the home of Leatherface, the deranged serial killer whose blood-soaked legacy continues to haunt the area’s residents — including Sally Hardesty (Olwen Fouéré), the sole survivor of his infamous 1973 massacre who’s hell-bent on seeking revenge.”

Mark Burnham (Lowlife) is Old Man Leatherface in Netflix’s Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

David Blue Garcia (Tejano) directed the movie, written by Chris Thomas Devlin.

Fede Alvarez is producing with Bad Hombre’s Rodolfo Sayagues, alongside Kim Henkel (co-writer of the 1974 film), Ian Henkel and Pat Cassidy, who are producing via their Exurbia Films.
