Leatherface was living with his brothers Drayton and Nubbins and Grandpa on their farmhouse in Texas. Siblings Sally and Franklin Hardesty go out with their friends to investigate the robbing of a local cemetery in order to make sure their grandfather's grave has not been violated. They run afoul of Nubbins and eventually the rest of his family, culminating in Leatherface killing everyone in the group except Sally. Leatherface and Drayton bring Sally into their home, intent on killing and eating her. She escapes by jumping out of the window, with Leatherface and Nubbins in hot pursuit. She manages to elude Nubbins, who is run over by a passing truck. When Leatherface arrives on the scene, the trucker throws a pipe wrench at him, causing him to fall backwards and cut into his leg with his own chainsaw. The driver panics and runs off, and Sally dives into the back of a pickup truck, narrowly avoiding Leatherface's chainsaw as the truck drives away. Enraged, he swings his running chainsaw around in all directions in a macabre dance. While Nubbins held Sally down, Leatherface helps Grandpa Sawyer in killing her with a sledgehammer. However, due to his immense age and failing strength, Grandpa Sawyer kept on dropping the hammer, forcing Leatherface to pick it up for him multiple times. During the struggle, in which both Leatherface and Nubbins attempt to help their grandfather, Sally manages to break free and escapes from the house. Leatherface then pursued her with Nubbins, his brother, chainsaw in hand. While being attacked by Nubbins, Sally manages to get a passing truck to stop, which resulted in Nubbins' accidental death. With his brother dead, Leatherface was forced to chase after Sally himself. While the panicking truck driver and Sally escape, the former throws a wrench at Leatherface, causing the serial killer to fall backwards and cut into his leg with his chainsaw. This minor injury prove to be ineffective as Leatherface continues pursuing them. After the truck driver escaped, Leatherface now focused solely on killing Sally. After she managed to escape on the back of a pickup truck, he began swinging his chainsaw around in rage. | Leatherface was living with his brothers Drayton and Nubbins and Grandpa on their farmhouse in Texas.

Several nights after the first incident, Stretch is visited by Chop Top, who announces himself and Bubba to be big fans of her. When Stretch gives Chop Top a tour and they get to a dark room, Bubba runs out with his chainsaw and misses Stretch, accidently hitting his brother in the head, which ruined his wig. After getting yelled at by his brother, Bubba goes after Stretch. She runs into a room and repels the former by spraying him with a fire extinguisher and then closing a sliding metal door, which Bubba is unable to saw through. Just when she thought she was safe, Bubba broke into the room through the wall and began sawing into a cooler full of ice and beer. However, upon seeing her face- to- face, Bubba forms a crush on Stretch. He strokes her with his chainsaw and she compliments him, which Bubba seemingly couldn't handle it anymore and begins to saw into the shelves and the radio room. He does a dance and leaves, sparing Stretch. He meets Chop Top, who just finished hitting L.G., Stretch's partner, in the head multiple times. Chop Top asks Bubba if he killed Stretch, to which Bubba lies and tells him yes. They take L.G.'s body, throw it in the back of Chop Top's truck and drive off. Stretch follows them to an abandoned carnival called Texas Battle Land. When she arrived at the attraction Lefty arrives as well, but when they meet, she falls into a trap.

She hides just as Bubba enters and is tasked by Drayton to take care of the meat. Bubba skins L.G. but stopped when he heard something. Grabbing a butcher knife, he looked for the source of the noise, and Stretch in her hiding place. Not wanting his family to find her, a panicking bubba places L.G.'s skinned face onto Stretch, disguising her as a dead body. He then proceeds to dance with her, but upon hearing the destruction of his home caused by Lefty, Bubba ties Stretch up and tells her to stay. After he left the room, L.G., barely alive, gets up and helps Stretch escape, but dies soon after. Later, Bubba is with his family, with Chop Top dancing with Nubbins' corpse and Drayton expressing worry about a cook-off. When Stretch runs by them, Drayton tasks Bubba with finding who just ran by. He does so and chases after Stretch, eventually cornering her. He held her in place with his chainsaw, not sure on what to do next. When his brothers arrived, a confused Chop Top tells Drayton that Stretch was supposed to be killed a while ago. However, when he supposedly figured out on why bubba didn't kill her, he begins chanting that his brother has a girlfriend, much to Bubba's embarrassment. He then begins hitting himself on the head with the shell of a lamp in frustration while Chop Top proceeds to knock Stretch out. Taking her captive, they proceeded to bring her with them to the dining room. After Bubba wakes Stretch up by kisses her on the lips, his brothers fetched Grandpa Sawyer and they have him whack Stretch with a sledgehammer, while Bubba held her down. However, Lefty arrives and saves his niece. Bubba then grabs his chainsaw and begins attacking the former, engaging in a duel. The sheriff then impales Bubba with his chainsaw, which went through his stomach, but Bubba continues fighting and is accidentally knocked down by Grandpa Sawyer when he attempted to throw his sledgehammer at Lefty. Drayton, deciding to commit suicide, detonates a grenade he grabbed from Nubbins' jacket, which blew up the entire cave, killing Drayton and the rest of his family, with the exception of Chop-Top and Bubba.
