The Flintstones: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

Episode Description: After a long day of "working" at the quarry, Fred Flintstone decides that his family deserves a nice, relaxing vacation. So, he packs up Wilma, Pebbles, and Dino into the family car (a prehistoric rock-powered machine), and heads out to the backwoods of Bedrock for some “rest and relaxation.” What could possibly go wrong?

The Flintstones arrive at a creepy, old lodge out in the middle of nowhere. It looks like something straight out of Texas Chainsaw Massacre, but hey, Fred’s been too busy losing bets at the bowling alley to care about the mood of the place.

As night falls, Fred, Wilma, and Pebbles are about to go to bed when they hear strange noises. From the woods comes the unmistakable sound of a chainsaw... But it's not any ordinary chainsaw. It’s the sound of a rock chainsaw, because apparently the Flintstones never learned to evolve into the modern age.

Fred tries to chalk it up to a prank from Barney, but after hearing the chainsaw rev louder and louder, he starts to get a little... nervous. Of course, that's when Leatherface—who just so happens to be a giant, mutated version of Fred's own cousin—pops up from behind a tree, revving the chainsaw and wearing a mask made of petrified woolly mammoth skin.

Fred’s first instinct? “Hey, buddy, what’s with the mask? Are you auditioning for the Bedrock version of a monster movie or something?”

Cue the lawyer's note on the side:
 "You’re pushing it, Jake. Also, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is copyrighted. Please refrain from referencing copyrighted material."

So, there’s a bloody chase scene through the woods, with Fred and Wilma trying to outrun Leatherface, while Pebbles and Dino try to find a way to “negotiate” with the maniac. Of course, in classic Flintstones style, everything ends with Fred accidentally decapitating Leatherface with a giant boulder, and then promptly eating dinner in front of the body because, well, it’s a cartoon.
