Among these horror movie experts is Leatherface, who is also in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, which came out in 1974 and was directed by the famous horror master Tobe Hooper, made Leatherface a monster that everyone knew and loved. The same company that made the Friday the 13th video game, Gun Interactive, has now made the official asymmetrical video game for this classic horror series, which stars a lot of horror icons.
Each of these actors has played Michael Myers or another killer from a famous horror movie series before, even though they are all playing Leatherface in the game. If you like scary games, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre is already a treat. But with this group of characters, it’s even better.
Narrator – Aaron LaPlante
For fans of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the radio voiceover that talks about the horrible things Leatherface and his family did is a famous part of the movie, and the game wouldn’t be the same without it. The narrator is Aaron LaPlante, who is best known for his role as The Duke in Resident Evil Village, one of the best shopkeepers in video games.
Another scary game that Aaron LaPlante did voice work for was The Callisto Protocol. He also voices the main character in the cartoon prehistoric survival show Primal. He also plays Rock Bison on the cartoon show Tiger & Bunny and in anime like Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War and Bastard!! Heavy Metal and Dark Fantasy films.
The Cook – Troy Burgess
It’s a lot more interesting to work with Troy Burgess, who voices the family member known as Cook, than with the rest of the group, who have all worked in horror movies before. Among other acts, he has danced for Cher, Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, and Paula Abdul.
In theater, Burgess played Johnny Cash in Ring of Fire and Dennis Dupree in Rock of Ages. He was also in the group cast of Elton John and Tim Rice’s Broadway musical Aida. He has also been a guest star on TV shows such as Crocodile Shoes, Swedish Dicks, and Glee.
Victim Connie Taylor – Bryarly Bishop
Bryarly Bishop, an actress and singer, plays Connie Taylor, a female victim in the game who is dressed like Daisy Dukes. She has done voice work for video games before, too. In the turn-based RPG Circus Electrique from Saber Interactive, Bishop voiced Amelia. In the independent sci-fi FPS puzzle-platformer Claire de Lune, she voiced the title character.
As Dot, she stars in the post-apocalyptic survival podcast series We’re Alive: Descendants. Bryarly Bishop has also worked on a lot of different short films, which is another interesting thing about her. South Down 79 as hitchhiker Tess, Warmthness as Delilah, and Übel as Mia Schumacher are a few film roles she has had.
Victim Leland McKinney – Matt Lowe
An ex-high school wrestler named Leland McKinney is one of the male victims you can play as. Fans of Mafia 3 and Hart of Dixie will enjoy hearing Matt Lowe speak him. On Hart of Dixie, Lowe played a band member named Meatball. In Mafia 3, Lincoln Clay saw him die on the Ferris Wheel as the bad guy Ritchie Doucet.
Not only has Matt Lowe been in an episode of The Walking Dead, but he also voices Ares in Blood of Zeus on Netflix, Tyler in Don’t Nod’s Twin Mirror, and Kristoff from Disney in Dreamlight Valley. Also, who could forget his role as Hippo on the Disney Channel show A.N.T. Farm?
Johnny – Damian Maffei
As you can see from his shoulderless black t-shirt, Johnny looks like any other greaser. However, he is actually the newest member of the Sawyer family and a cruel killer you don’t want to meet. The actor Damian Maffei plays this new family member. Maffei has played a number of well-known slashers in recent horror movies.
Maffei was cast as the new “Man in the Mask” in The Strangers: Prey at Night. Which came out in 2018 and is the follow-up to the horror/thriller The Strangers. Other parts where he dresses as a killer include Haunt (2019). Which was written by Scott Beck and Bryan Woods (A Quiet Place), and Morgan (2021). In that movie, he wears a Ghillie suit and a deer skull mask.
Sissy – Kristina Klebe
Also, unlike Cook and Hitchhiker, Sissy is a new female killer who makes her appearance in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre video game. She has a creepy smile and acts a certain way. Because she has spent her life going from cult to cult, including the notorious Manson clan. Kristina Klebe plays her, and in horror movies she’s been in, she plays the opposite of this character.
Klebe played Laurie Strode’s friend Lynda in Rob Zombie’s Halloween. She also played Detective McNally in the 2015 collection of short films Tales of Halloween and acted with Dolph Lundgren as Agent Evelyn Pierce in Don’t Kill It.

He’s been called the most diligent student among the victims, and Zeno Robinson, who plays Nino Lahiffe in Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir, has plenty of experience in this area.
Robinson’s list of games and anime titles is too long to list all of them. Some of his most well-known parts are as Jamaican fighter Dee Jay in Street Fighter 6, as Thrash in the animated series Transformers: Earth Spark, as Fogado in Fire Emblem Engage, as Hawks and Deidoro Sakaki in My Hero Academia, and as Goh in the long-running Pokémon animated show.
