Interesting development with the new Texas Chainsaw trailer

**Sean P Kelly** · 06-07-2006, 08:39 AM

On Monday the trailer debuted for Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning (the prequel to the remake that was made a few years ago). However, the trailer can only be viewed between the hours of 10:00 pm and 4:00 am (though, for some reason, you can see the trailer at any time through the ITunes store)

According to AICN, this is because the MPAA feels the trailer is a little too intense (even though the trailer did get a green band -- i.e. "Approved for all audiences") and that New Line was initially banned from showing the trailer online...PERIOD.

Will this lead to the beginning of the a trend for trailers of R-rated films?

That doesn't make any sense at all. I mean, another dumb Texas Chainsaw flick? True story or not, it just isn't good cinema.

Seriously, though, if the Saw trailers are okay for full release, then I don't see how this one could be witheld. And since when can the MPAA say jack squat about internet trailers?

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

I not too sure, but from the looks of the trailer, this looks to be exactly the same as the last one.....just no Jessica Beil
