WANNA BUY A SLIGHTLY USED LEATHERFACE?

That vague premise doesn't really inspire much confidence. The news of five writers doesn't either. I'd like to take this moment to say I really like Jason Goes To Hell. Not a popular opinion I know but it's pretty entertaining I think.

Maybe a magic mouth slug allows Leatherface to jump from his old body to a new one. Or maybe someone eats Leatherface's heart and gets his powers or some shit (which would actually make sense this time round, what with the cannibalism and all)

I think this will finally push the Chainsaw franchise past Halloween for 'most fucked up continuity'.

I'm going to bet Leatherface is still young and contemporary, and this movie's going to pay lip service to the idea that the "TCM" movies, as we know, happened in modern day. As in, we wanted to do a sequel, but we didn't want to do a period movie.

We're past that.  The various Halloween continuities at least ran for a couple of films.  Every single sequel to the original Chainsaw ignored the sequels that came before.

Yeah, this will be 5 Chainsaw continuities. Halloween could get back in the game if the next film ignores Zombie's continuity.

Part 2 didn't ignore part one, it just took a hard left.

All of the original sequels acknowledge the original; they ignore the previous sequels. Leatherface ignores Chansaw 2, Next Generation ignores Leatherface and Chainsaw 2. Every sequel is in effect a new continuity sprung from the original.

This is a terrible idea as it is on its face. There are ways to make this series viable again and this is not it.
