The incidents after the original film 's event are likely mistaken since Leatherface was killed at the end of the second Texas Chain Saw Massacre film .
Writer-director Kim Henkel had previously co-written the original The Texas Chain Saw Massacre ( 1974 ) with Tobe Hooper ; the events of the previous two sequel films are addressed in The Next Generations opening prologue as `` two minor , yet apparently related incidents '' which happened after the events of the original film .
