![]() Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: Both Leatherface and Chop Top get skewered through the guts with a running chainsaw at the film's climax.The crawl for the first movie also says that Sally's escape led to the discovery of the Sawyer clan's crimes, implying that they were ultimately brought to justice, but its counterpart in this movie says that the police weren't able to find the killers, the victims, the house or any other evidence of the crimes. Though everyone else in her group was killed, Sally escaped at the end of the film, traumatized but alive, only for the opening crawl of this film to reveal that she "collapsed into catatonia" soon afterward, apparently never awakening again.
