The whole dinner table scene is so viscerally disturbing, not just because of the skin/human furniture, but also because of how gleeful and AMUSED the family is by her terror and desperation. Also, I think she gets away because the family has gotten so USED to doing this stuff that they’re not even paying full attention to her; she’s just a slab of meat, not an autonomous person capable of escape. They’ve gotten complacent and sloppy.

What I've always loved is that Mr. Hooper's seminal horror movie is considered one of the goriest movies made... and yet, it's relatively bloodless. An absolute masterwork in using the implication of violence rather than showing the gore. One reason it felt so gritty and nasty was that filming was pretty brutal (115 degrees, not bathing for 5 weeks, etc). As the Final Girl's actress admited, that scene of her losing her mind in the back of the truck wasn't acting.
@timcardona996211 ай бұрын
"the implication of violence" - We see 2 men get beaten with a mallet, a girl put on a meat hook and half-dead corpse suck the blood off of a girl's finger. Not to mention the Bone Room. That's violence and its not "implied"; it is shown to us with lingering shots and close-ups. Not gory but this is definitely a violent movie.

An interesting fact, is that Gunnar Hansen's performance as Leatherface wasn't just about donning a mask and carrying on a chainsaw; No, but the director of the film Tobe Hooper gave the actor free rein to interpret his role as he wanted and gave Leatherface the personality he desired. Because of this, Hansen chose that Leatherface would be a mentally disabled and speechless man; This is why before filming his scenes the actor visited an asylum several times in order to learn the movements and behaviors of the admitted patients.

The most obvious example is the girl on the meat hook. We see absolutely nothing. Leatherface lifts her up and it cuts to her suspended, grabbing at the hook as if trying to lift herself off it. Obviously she's on some sort of harness. Yet, if they HAD tried to show the girl getting hung up, it probably wouldn't have had as strong a reaction.

@Bluesit327 ай бұрын
It's not the greatest, but it's extremely unique. Both the budget and the conditions gave it a nightmarish quality, particularly the ending. It was over a hundred degrees in the shade and the lighting was only make it worse. The meat was real and beyond spoiled, filling the set with the smell of rot. After putting the make-up on the kid playing "Grandpa" (he was 19 at the time), he stated he would NOT go through it twice. In short, they needed to film every scene with him in it then and there. It had been over 24 hours since they slept. To show how messed up the actors were, Leatherface's dance at the end was entirely unscripted and had the people on set backing away in fear as Gunnar Hansen spun around and around, swinging the chainsaw, sometimes with one hand and not the tightest looking grip. You can't replicate that sort of madness.

Great movie. Thanks for the reaction upload. Two (fun?) facts: As a large man who had to work every day in triple-digit heat while wearing a wool costume that he couldn’t change out of, Gunnar Hansen already had it rough while making The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. He got so smelly by the end of production that the rest of the cast and crew avoided eating around him. And when Jerry (Allen Danzinger) discovers Leatherface’s slaughter room and then meets the man himself, the scream he lets out is genuine. It was apparently the first time he had seen Hansen in full costume.

You guys were right, this movie did mess a lot of people up. I believe it was Guillermo Del Toro that went vegetarian for a bit after watching this movie. Leatherface, the chainsaw guy in the movie, is partly based on Serial Killer Ed Gein who had his house decorated with human bones and skin in various capacities, that's why this movie feels so real. Also, Leatherface's mask is meant to be made of human skin in the movie. As far as this movie and its sequels, I'm working my way through them right now actually, so I don't really have much to say about them in terms of recommendations and such. A bit of a fyi though, they also kinda do the same thing the Halloween movies do from what I understand where there's like 5 or 6 movies, a reboot or 2 and some stuff connecting to them, and stuff that kinda just jumps around and connects in weird places and such, so the continuity between things can be a bit confusing.

More horrifying than Saw, I’ve never heard that before but I kind of agree. This one feels more realistic. For Saw at least you could say he has “reasoning” so as long as you’ve not wronged him or done anything and your just a good normal person then you don’t have anything to worry about like for example from what we learn about the friend group in this movie had the villain been Jigsaw I think they’d have been fine and wouldn’t have been a target. Whereas here Leatherface and family have no real reasoning other than wanting to make life as miserable and horrific for their victims as they can unless they just outright kill them. Brutality wise I think Saws violence can be worse depending on the trap but Texas chainsaw is probably more sadistic as they’re seen enjoying it more whereas Jigsaw doesn’t enjoy the pain and suffering he puts his victims through as it’s all part of the process.

Sorry, I actually liked your reaction, but I couldn't hold this is for the 10th time or so.

The things Ed Gein did were indeed terrible, but he was also a victim, due to the way his overly religious mother raised him and his brother. Another thing is that even though he's labeled a serial killer, he actually only murdered two women. A serial killer is typically a person who murders three or more people, with the murders taking place over more than a month and including a significant period of time between them. However, while most authorities set a threshold of three murders, others extend it to four or lessen it to two .

The gears to the big truck locked after it ran over the guy. That's why they didn't drive away.

The scariest part about this... The human furniture and all that stuff. It was inspired by a real life serial killer, Ed Gein. He's been an inspiration for MANY movies. This one, Psycho and The Silence of the Lambs.

The dinner scene is even more depressing when you know the fact the actors are really miserable when filming because of the heat and the stink of the meats rotting . So some of that is LEGIT real misery on their faces. The ending of this movie is definitely one of the best endings to a horror movie ever if not the best. Her in the truck laughing like a maniac... Leatherface anger dancing lol. Its perfect.

21:51 that’s still the only jump scare that made me jump out of my seat.

Id love for you guys to check out Eaten Alive. The actress that survived this movie is also in that one. X got more of its inspiration from Eaten Alive than Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Its also very CAMPY and lot more fun. If anyone watches the Housewives franchise, the little girl in Eaten Alive is Kyle Richards.

I convinced my parents to let me rent this when I was about 12. Watched it on VHS in my room at midnight. By the final shot I felt utterly shocked, exhausted, overwhelmed…Tarantino was right.

Next, watch Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 2 staring Dennis Hopper. Same Director. Banned in Australia for 20 until Texas Chainsaw Massacre The Beginning came out, which was a prequel to the remake.

The truck driver actually got converted and he is with them in the chili cook-off in the next movie ! 😂

My friend Bill (a retired cop) actually thought this movie was a 'snuff film,' because he has seen real people die and apparently they flop around like homeboy did when big-boy hit him with the hammer. Bonk!
