The truck driver at the end was weird


Either have him escape in the pick up or give leatherface one last kill
Having him just run off screen was an odd choice

It adds to the chaos and madness of the climax.

Good answer.

He was probably thinking: "I ain't gettin' mixed up wit' these crazy white people!"

I was wondering why he didn't just drive off when he got the girl into the truck with him, especially seeing as how the chainsaw wasn't effective against the metal door. It wouldn't have had such a spectacular ending though, so I overlooked it.

When I first watched this, I was surprised that Leatherface didn’t try to keep chasing him.

He was more interested in "the one that got away" apparently . . . .
