Skin-Mask
Leatherface's chainsaw obviously makes him a symbolic hellraiser, but it also seems his eerie predilection to make masks made out of human skin makes him a symbolic witch of some kind.
The skin-mask 'aesthetic' choice does not really seem to be a masquerade (e.g., Halloween/Michael Myers) oriented intelligence/imagination but rather a conscious intention to appear unholy.
Doesn't it seem under such criterion that Leatherface is more like Freddy Krueger, while Michael Myers is more like Jason?
Strange...
