X-Men Origins: Wolverine has a few chainsaw shots in it. Looks like he's using an 070 that's been painted. There's a few glimpses of what looks like older Husqvarnas and a Mac. Its cool they used saws that fit close to the time period for the scenes in the movie.

Yeah, the saws fit, but the lat model caterpillar log loaders sure didn't!

Who can forget the Colombians in Scarface..

Was watching Mad Max beyond Thunderdome for the first time last week. In that theres a scene with mel using a camo'd Homlelite SXL, with a huge bar on it

It is rare to see a saw as big as the super 1050 homie used in the running man, rare but gratifiying. There are also a couple of good scenes in Porky's with a homelite C5 and a pioneer holiday when they are cutting the piers on Porky's place. The saw that Clark Griswold has is a PM610 mac.

At least they didn't have a 6 foot bar on that mini mac just for the sake of the movie.

were they still making that 1050 in '86/'87?

I think even a bit later than that. Bill G. has some brochures advertising them alongside modern models.

Don't forget the 306 Poulan in THE chainsaw movie.......Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

An interesting bit of trivia,

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The house in the movie Psycho and the character of "Buffalo Bill" from Silence of the Lambs were all spawned by a real life serial killer named Ed Gein.

I hadn't realized that the saw in that was a 125 Mac. Pretty cool.

Hank cuts the desk in half with a CP125...

Ooh! I'll play!

Motel Hell (1980)

 

[little possum]

Cant think of any off the top of my head right now, I personally would love to see more in TV and movies.

Only one I remember is the scene in Porkys. Good memory Hoss.
Also Texas Chainsaw Massacre- duh

 

[super3]

Seen one last night, Jeff Bridges and Sam Waterson were rustlers,cut up a big steer with a Mac.

Don't see "overboard" mentioned here yet. Goldie Hawn is using what appears to be an Eager Beaver to decapitate a scarecrow.
