Speaking of bloody, the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie concludes with crazed murderer Leatherface swinging his chainsaw wildly, frustrated that Sally, his would-be-victim, has escaped in the back of a speeding truck.

It's one of the most iconic moments in horror movie history, which is probably why the poster for the latest instalment in the series - which is due to be released in 2021 - pays homage to it.

The poster depicts a not-so-friendly face that's been painted with random splotches of colour, and if you look directly at the bottom of this face - right in the middle of the chin - you can just about make out a silhouette of Leatherface, standing in that iconic, chainsaw-swinging pose from the end of the original movie.

Producer Fede Alvarez recently confirmed that the upcoming Texas Chainsaw Massacre will be a direct sequel to the original, so as well as being a cool hidden detail, the Leatherface silhouette is also a nod to the ongoing story of the series.
