Do you think Franklin felt what was happening to him?


Or do you think he was too shocked to feel the chainsaw going in him? Also, do you think he died right then and there or do you think he died while Leatherface was going after Sally?

I think the answer can be whatever you want it to be, it wasn't specified in the movie.

He was screaming so obviously he felt horrorific pain. It was a massive wound but he would still be alive for some time.

He definitely felt it. But by the time Leatherface stopped cutting, he would have lost consciousness from massive blood loss. Doubtful he would have been alive for more than a few minutes after that, but even if he was, he wasn't conscious for it.

Did he wheel Franklin back to the house after that or leave him and go after Sally? I ask because Sally sure got a headstart.
