Dark Sky Films and Fathom Events are bringing Tobe Hooper‘s The Texas Chain Saw Massacre 4K restoration to theaters later this year.

The one-night only theatrical event takes place on August 18.

“Last year’s response exceeded our expectations and proved that audiences still want to experience THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE the way it was meant to be seen — together, on the big screen,” said Justin DiPietro, Executive Vice President of MPI and Dark Sky Films. “We’re thrilled to make TEXAS CHAIN SAW DAY an annual event and continue celebrating a film whose impact on horror and popular culture remains unmatched.”

“TEXAS CHAIN SAW DAY captures everything that makes moviegoing special: passionate fans, a beloved film and the shared excitement of experiencing it together in a theatre,” said Ray Nutt, Chief Executive Officer at Fathom Entertainment. “Fathom is pleased to partner with Dark Sky Films and establish an annual tradition and welcome the Chain Saw faithful back to cinemas for another unforgettable celebration of one of horror’s most influential films.”

In the 1974 classic, five youths traveling through rural Texas fall prey to a butcher in a mask made of human skin and his cannibalistic family. Marilyn Burns, Paul A. Partain, Allen Danziger, William Vail, Teri McMinn, Gunnar Hansen, Edwin Neal, and Jim Siedow star.

Tickets will be available online on July 21, 2026, and at participating theater box offices (locations are subject to change). For more information, please visit Fathom Entertainment.
