As if the TCM III plot and characters weren't already weird enough, in comes Babi Sawyer (Jennifer Banko). Babi is Leatherface's daughter and her mother is one of his previous victims. She carries around a doll that she calls Sally, which could be in reference to TCM's final girl.

In the Texas chainsaw massacre Leatherface is 27 and the 2022 chainsaw Massacre is 50 years later making him 77, how would a 77-year-old still have the strength to commit more massacres?
