Who will survive and what will be left of them? This one is a bonafide classic in horror and one of the truest of the backwoods subgenre.

We also revere the strong ensemble cast, and the iconic character of Leatherface.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
