The high profile of the rights concerning The Texas Chainsaw Massacre has underscored the idea of how IP has not been locking down with a film company. This also shows how much horror is such a hot topic whether it be in theaters or streaming apps at home, especially the process with the media studios trying to gain the rights to a classic 1974 slasher picture.
