That first kill was the worst one in a lot of ways. Without any buildup from the soundtrack whatsoever, we're introduced to Leatherface in a brutal way. The death convulsions are extra disturbing because they're a new thing in horror cinema, from what I can recall. The soundtrack doesn't occur until the very wrong looking metal door is slammed shut after the deed is done, and just like that, we're shown a very understated yet realistic example of daylight horror. Chills for real.

[@jamie8422]

Here is why the movie is so iconic. To many....it is the scariest movie of all time. But there is barely any blood. There is barely any visable violence. It is all about art direction and cinematography. Like....when the girl is put on the hook. You dont see the hook actually go in....nor does it come out her throat. You dont even see any blood. But the way they shot it....you feel her pain. The chainsaw is another example. Only 1 person gets killed by a chainsaw....and its really too dark to see. 2 people are killed by simply a hit on the head.

[@radioactive_moose]

The director was trying to get a PG rating (only G, PG & R were a thing then)

[@chrisbfreelance]

It was banned in the UK until the late 90's because it was censored based largely on assumptions, whilst other much more visually violent films got a free pass.

[@chrisbfreelance]

It's my favourite film, not just in horror I saw at maybe 10 years of age, and I'd never seen anything like it in any genre. The cinematography and ambient and ominous soundtrack set it apart. Barely any musical score as such, just unsettling sounds and images of death and decay set against the scorching Texas heat. It also did what pretty much no horror film had done before, and didn't following; it showed the killers in broad daylight. They weren't supernatural beings, just dusturbed men, clearly learning challenged who saw people like cattle. I don't even interperate Leatherface as being evil, he is a mentally challenged brute, who is abused and as hinted by the hitchhiker brother, just primed for butchering. That to me is what makes it such compelling horror.

[@Baffled-f9d]

It was also very hot and miserable for everyone doing the film, but it set the mood. It also turned me into a vegetarian for awhile.

[@Bluesit32]

It wouldn't come out her throat. It's buried up in the meat of her back...like hooking a slab of beef.

[@sca88]

RIP Marilyn Burns one of the original Final Girls.

[@ronaldsolis7612]

Marilyn nailed it to the coffin. RIP

[@TheNativeEngine]

The Leatherface actor was wearing a metal thigh plate for the stunt. When the chainsaw landed on his "thigh" it heated up the plate burning his thigh. Gunnar Hansen genuinely thought he was cut and screamed in terror and pain.

[@Nani-jq4gc]

This movie also had a low budget, so the actor that plays Sally actually had to put dirty rags in her mouth it’s a lot of things that were used because of the low budget and also the actor playing leather face actually injured himself with the chainsaw

[@maxcanonstunner6532]

Damn.

[@flungjung]

that's not true.....he did NOT injure himself....watch the documentary on the making of....

[@Nani-jq4gc]

It is true , search it up.

[@tommywills4891]

The cinematography and raw grittiness of this movie are what makes it so effective for a horror movie. Horror movies now try to give you a resolution and closing, this movie ends with the unknown element. It feels like being stuck in a nightmare. I personally think this is one of the greatest horror films ever made because it is so disturbing and visceral, I like the fact that you just sit there processing it when the credits roll. The psychology of Toby Hooper behind this movie is the parts that aren't shown make it more scary because your mind fills in the gaps of what's happening

[@Archmage_74]

If you ever get a chance to watch the documentary of this film then do not miss it. This movie was incredibly difficult to make., the budget was extremely cheap and some of the actors got injured along the way and in the end the mafia bought the rights to the film and never paid any of the actors. Nobody knows how much this film actually made in the end because of the Mafia owning it and keeping it a secrete. it is said that The Texas Chainsaw Massacre may be the most highest grossing film ever.

[@marcdewey1242]

Marilyn Burns the actress who played Sally in the torture scene there at the last,told that it was extremely hot in that house during filming,and went on to say that Gunnar Hansen who played Leatherface really did slice her index finger,She also played in the Helter Skelter film about the Manson family as Susan Atkins.

[@daron85]

I've always been a fan of horror. Ever since I was a kid. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (this 1974 version) has always been on my top 3 horror films list. The reason why I love it so much is because of how raw it is. It feels so authentic. The actors don't even seem like trained actors. They're actually nobodies. Some of the acting isn't the greatest (some dialogue scenes) and it works so perfectly because it seems real which I think is vital for a movie like this. I feel it's a movie that only works in the 70s.

[@KingRichard1013]

Toby Hooper was really onto something with this movie. I mean this movie demonstrated just how much of a genius he was.

[@feferosette]

Great reaction! This movie scared the hell out of me when I first saw it as a teen.

[@snoopersgonnasnoop]

Thank you 🙏🏽

[@razkable]

@@snoopersgonnasnoop this film is about ed gein vietnam and cia testing...that's its inspiration...you can feel the anger of the country and filmmaker while watching this...this is how the world felt

[@uravirginwhocantdrive1400]

Fun fact: Leatherface (the killer in this movie) and the killers in Psycho (1960), and the killer in Silence of The Lambs (1991) (I won’t say those killers names in case you haven’t seen those movies) were all inspired By Edward Gein (look him up) one of the most deranged killers in criminal history who did some disturbing things (besides killing)

[@Nelly-mf9gu]

Love the reaction….what a classic horror masterpiece…saw it when I was 8 for the first time and was terrified…looking back at 28 I can say it still holds up and btw terrified of spiders as well lol

[@argent-kestrel90]

That was a raw Hotlink Sausage that the actor playing Franklin had in his mouth. Gunnar Hanson who played Leatherface implied that Franklin was eating a mans "sausage".

[@albo9246]

1, 2 and 3 are a classic trilogy

[@sca88]

I saw this when I was 9 when it came out and Exorcist at 8 a year earlier. Some of the 70's low budget horror have a real freaky vibe that modern horror just doesn't have.

[@shawnwacek6791]

The movie did its job by disturbing you jackpot glad you guys enjoyed the movie LOL such a great movie this is the way to test people if they're scared easily is watch this movie and see how they're reaction lol the part with Franklin and the flashlight scene scared me to death when I was 12 years old when I watched this movie for the first time LOL

[@tractordriver8950]

Watched this when I was 13 and left me in shock for weeks. Movie felt very intense and real.

[@ccl7983]

The reason you probably got psycho vibes is because texas chainsaw massacre and psycho are based the same true story.

[@KNK2116]

Fun reaction & great commentary! I didn’t expect anything less from y’all tbh lol! I know y’all was talking about how dark it was at times & wanted to let y’all know it was shot like that intentionally. The filmmaker wanted you to feel as if you were there with them throughout the movie & if you were there, it would really be that hard to see out in the dark. I think it makes it more scary that you aren’t able to see everything clearly when they’re out in the darkness. Also, these characters had no real indication that they were in any danger until it was too late. They would’ve viewed the hitchhiker incident as completely separate since they had no indication he would be around. He technically wasn’t around until Sally was the only one left lol. The first 2 only went to the house because they needed gas & heard the generator, thinking that they could just buy some gas from the homeowner. Jerry went looking for them, like I assume most people would for their friends unless they knew for sure it would put them in danger. When he saw their blanket on the porch, he more than likely assumed they had been invited in. Sally & Franklin were really the only 2 in the group who might’ve had any worry because 3 of their friends had been gone for so long. From what I’ve heard, people in the 70’s & prior didn’t really have worries about falling victim to psychotic people who wished them harm & it was more common to be met by neighborly people. Sorry this comment was so long lol

[@KNK2116]

The first 2 people had no business going in that house tho. If they would’ve left when no one answered the door, they all likely would’ve made it out of the situation alive smh. Him getting her with the broom was always upsetting lol but I explain it away for myself by saying she was just so exhausted from what had just happened that she couldn’t fight back

[@hashtagfilm]

In relation to your hating spiders comment - I insist that you watch Arachnophobia. Not only is it a great movie, but I imagine your reaction to it will be one of the best.

[@NikkieTwix]

Love that movie

[@corym.m.3084]

This is why the older horror movies are actually scary compared to the crap today. Pretty sure chest hair and such is based on genetics, not age. There some guys younger than me with more chest hair lol.

[@antoineporche-rideaux4841]

fun fact there is a well known actor whose 1st movie was a texas chainsaw massacre sequel that you'd notice right away

[@AceOfBased]

Haha great reaction... check out these classics too: The Hills Have Eyes (1977) Zombie (1979) The Beyond (1981) City of the Living Dead (1980) Nightmare City (1980) Suspiria (1977)

[@DanABA]

The one thing about the original TCM, you can't say it's overrated as a horror movie.

[@Yahoooo.1]

You guys should totally react to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 ! It’s the only truly canon part (besides All American Massacre that was never released) and the rest are all set in their own respectable universes. It’s far more funny, gory, dark-humored and generally all sorts of super-bonkers crazy. Along with the original it’s my favorite movie ever ! Would love to see you guys react to it ❤️ great video

[@JasonSum1979]

great reaction but, it makes me feel very old! Both Night of the living dead & Texas Chainsaw Massacre are super important in changing the landscape of modern horror without those two films the entire 80’s Horror boom may have never happened (The 70’s was a major shift in film) I highly recommend Phantasm, Dawn of the Dead & Thriller A Cruel Picture (influenced Kill Bill) a very underrated grindhouse flick! Texas Chainsaw was also one of those massive indie films that made record profits but, nobody involved with the film made a dime the film distributor used the film as a front for the mob to launder money

[@TheGoodLad89]

There's a theory that the Father/Cook didn't want any harm to come to the Group, as when they asked about the old Family Home back at the Gas Station, he told them to stay clear and just wait to refuel and be on their way. Also I you don't like Spiders, might I recommend watching Arachnophobia.

[@PITTFOX]

Glad to see this reaction. Such a classic. I'll have to check out more of your reactions.

[@danajackson332]

It's cool that you mentioned Psycho. The Butcher of Plainsfield is the inspiration for both Norman Bates in Psycho and Leatherface in Texas Chansaw Massacre.

[@samsquanch1996]

This was the first horror film to use the "based on true events" gimmick.

[@Bluesit32]

And it was. Furniture made of skin and bones, wearing someone else's face...all things that happened and, sadly, would happen again.

[@claudemeares1871]

First time I saw TCSM (74) I didn't know what to make of it either. After repeated viewings, I've got to say that it's a grisly piece of art - a time capsule, if you will to a time when horror films left some of their northern European gothic roots and became fully westernized - leading into a bronze age of horror which will likely never be duplicated.

[@guillermoramirez6450]

i enjoyed your reaction to this movie. Horror movie masterpiece, on the fact that of most of the violence in the film is suggestive. It is disturbing like you said.

[@dopevinnynation226]

You should definitely watch Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 (1986) if you wanna know how the original timeline ends.

[@Yahoooo.1]

Agreed 100% ! Actually the original timeline ended with All American Massacre (SPOILER : Chop Top survived as the only one from the entire family, went on a killing spree, got caught and put in some prison/asylum and like 10 or something years later is being interviewed by a reporter researching the whole forgotten chainsaw killings case. Chop Top (whose real name is Robert, also called Bloody Bobby) basically tells the entire Sawyer backstory and most of the movie is told by flashbacks.) but yea since it never had a release, we’ll probably never really know.

[@thomasmurphy6652]

And not even the handle the bristles lol

[@deacongowan117]

Few things. Best reaction to Texas Chainsaw Massacre, mainly because you gave it the stamp of approval in saying the most disturbing thing you’ve ever seen. I grew up with this being the first movie I remember seeing at around 3 or so. Second, this movie is completely fictional. Only a couple minor details from Ed Gein’s life about trophies, furniture, and wearing masks and suits of human skin. Look at his family as Ed’s different traits. However, everything else is completely made up. Newt Texas isn’t even a real city. It was made up as the backdrop.

[@jacoblofthus7908]

Now I used to like the 2003 version better, but lately the original's authenticity has really grown on me. I actually have this idea to check out horror movies from basically all decades except the early 2000's.

I’ve been to the Sawyer house. It was moved from the original location. It’s now in Kingsland Texas and it is Hoopers Restaurant now. 😂

[@kennyshoulders1284]

To make the new movie more scary for y’all the guy with the chainsaw the movie Psycho and Hannibal Lector are based off of a real person. His name is Ed Gein and he was big from 1954 to 1958.

[@jakwiq]

Pretty good reaction. This hit different back in the mid 80s (when I saw it) because all the protections in society today were not there back then. A lot of crazy folks running around getting away with stuff like this until science caught up. Y'all need to check out the 2003 & 2006 versions of this movie. That'll hit y'all different too.
