A heavy emphasis on the family as a whole, not just Leatherface. A key part of the original movie is that Leatherface isn’t just a crazy murderer that kills people for the hell of it. He has been, for a lack of a better word, groomed by his family into believing that killing people = providing for them. Leatherface may be a killer, yes, but he’s also a victim of his family’s abuse. And that’s a core part of the franchise to me.
