Based on real-life 'serial killer' Ed Gein, Leatherface's penchant for DIY goods is perhaps the most horrible of all traits on this list. Unless you're really into human-face lampshades and people-leather skin suits. It's all about the authenticity after all, isn't it?

Again, a long lasting icon in the realms of slasher movies, Leatherface has quite literally carved a place for himself amongst the best, most likely with the giant chainsaw he likes to put in people who break down in the Texan wilderness.

Noisy, manic, and with the type of family you really wouldn't want over for Christmas dinner, Leatherface offers exactly what it says on the tin when it comes to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Sometimes simple is best.
