Yes. You hit the nail on the head (or the body on the head, lol.) Absolutely. The “sequels” were all made many, many years later and look and sound nothing aesthetically like the original. I can appreciate certain elements of the sequels, but they honestly have virtually no aesthetic and artistic relationship with the original 70s film.

Dear Gunnar Hansen, it's been five years since you died, and I wanted to say that you did a really good job playing leatherface 46 years. You died in your 60s, you were 2 times close to be in your 70s. This is so depressing I just wish I could've met you nowadays but too late. And good job with that gunnar hansen limited edition signature series mask, I could've gotten that but it was 8 years and it was made only 74 masks so definitely too late. You have a lot of great interviews and talking about how you make the movie. Also I like it when you made a book about it called chainsaw confidential. What a sweet, lovely, smart, patient, and and talented man you are. R.I.P Sweet man. And were gonna kick Andrew's ass who said boo hoo to you.
@GAMEOVER-nd8fq3 жыл бұрын
Gunnar Hansen was the first, and the BEST Leather face! The untalented bodybuilder, who played the part in one of the sequels (not memorable enough to name specifically) was the worst. The way Gunnar slammed that steel door at the first kill scene of Kirk, could not have been done any better by anyone!

The best thing about Gunnar is that he gave Leatherface a true identity. When I saw the film for the first time I was nine and I felt that he was just a little kid playing around with his beloved human parts and that he was being used by his family to commit those atrocities. He could’ve just done the usual thing that a stunt does when they play the bad guy in a slasher film, but he went further and created something very special.

Cool. Got a little distracted, though, from the quiet din of folks CONSTANTLY yakking in the back. Added a slight shopping mall effect that wasn't really ideal. Kudos to GH, who looked like he was looking out at the chattering ninnies, but keeping cool and just simply relating what he had to say. For the last couple of minutes,, I sure hope that wasn't open-mouthed eating (from, the filmer?) in the background. Glad GH went into the whole low-register-note-accentuating-slamming-of-door-carrying-into-gal-on-swings score....always appreciated that, as well as (not mentioned but also cool), immediately after that door slam, the camera tracks under the bench, as the house looms ominously before TM and us. I think my fave shot is either Leatherface suddenly saying hi out of the bushes in the dark, or a bound-to-chair Sally's POV of the gang, at the table, especially a be-wigged Leatherface sidling all fancy-like, SLOWLY, towards us. Still wish he ditched the apron.

Yes. You hit the nail on the head (or the body on the head, lol.) Absolutely. The “sequels” were all made many, many years later and look and sound nothing aesthetically like the original. I can appreciate certain elements of the sequels, but they honestly have virtually no aesthetic and artistic relationship with the original 70s film.
He was such a dear, educated and talented gentleman. I wish he had been given a chance to act in something after CHAINSAW other than crappy direct to video movies. It was always a pleasure to speak with him. R. I. P Gunnar
R.I.P Gunnar Hunsen! The only true Leatherface that became a legend only because the other killer was drunk, this man outdid himself! Especially that he used a real-working chainsaw, and he never used one before!

Hard to think he perform Leatherface. True legend
My dad knew Gunnar and worked with him in theater. He was a great guy who was really nice. Alas he was gone from us to soon from cancer. R.I.P. Gunnar
A true icon, R.I.P.
Who could've guessed the nightmare figure who shaped my perception of backwoods Texas had a graduate degree
The door slam with the sound is indeed super creepy and dark i love it.

I couldn't believe it when I found out that Gunnar had passed away... I had no idea he was sick. So sad. Miss you Gunnar.
Gunner Hansen is a very nice man. You would never know when he played the psychopath leatherface however he did such a great job at it. Leatherface had to be one of the best movie villians of all time

This reminds me of WWE's Glenn "Kane" Jacobs. A very nice and intelligent man but played one of the most demonic characters in WWE as well as a horror movie character Jacob Goodnight.
I was there! such an interesting panel..and ill never forget meeting such a sweet man and a horror legend. R.I.P Gunnar.
The late Gunnar Hansen could even play Santa Claus by the looks of it.

That door slamming scene was perfect. Gunnar saying he was so excited at the time is exactly how Leatherface would have felt if actually happening. And that "doom" sound after the slamming of the door i have always noticed and love it. Amazing scene
Agree with most comments. Gunnar was the only 'leatherface'. Plus I actually got to meet him once, so he is kind of my claim to meeting someone famous. RIP to the best X
Thanks for posting! Fortunately this event was filmed since he died of cancer 4 months later on November 7th 2015 (his close friend Marilyn Burns died the year before on August 5th 2014).
It's funny how nice two of the most iconic horror villains in history are, Gunnar and Nick Castle.
This is why this movie is so great... so much inprov..... Any remake pales in comparison
R.I.P Gunner 😪😪❤️❤️
I have always liked Texas chainsaw massacre more than 1978 Halloween and love both films.
R.I.P. Gunnar. You will be greatly missed.
Dear Gunnar Hansen, it's been five years since you died, and I wanted to say that you did a really good job playing leatherface 46 years. You died in your 60s, you were 2 times close to be in your 70s. This is so depressing I just wish I could've met you nowadays but too late. And good job with that gunnar hansen limited edition signature series mask, I could've gotten that but it was 8 years and it was made only 74 masks so definitely too late. You have a lot of great interviews and talking about how you make the movie. Also I like it when you made a book about it called chainsaw confidential. What a sweet, lovely, smart, patient, and and talented man you are. R.I.P Sweet man. And were gonna kick Andrew's ass who said boo hoo to you.
Gunnar Hansen was the first, and the BEST Leather face! The untalented bodybuilder, who played the part in one of the sequels (not memorable enough to name specifically) was the worst. The way Gunnar slammed that steel door at the first kill scene of Kirk, could not have been done any better by anyone!

It's a damn shame there isn't one proper one-on-one sit down 'regular' interview with Gunnar Hansen.
Thank you for capturing and sharing. Very insightful :)
The best thing about Gunnar is that he gave Leatherface a true identity. When I saw the film for the first time I was nine and I felt that he was just a little kid playing around with his beloved human parts and that he was being used by his family to commit those atrocities. He could’ve just done the usual thing that a stunt does when they play the bad guy in a slasher film, but he went further and created something very special.
R.I.P leather face/Gunnar Hansen
Crazy that he would be gone just four months after this.
I'm so happy Gunnar wasn't in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, that movie is horrible and would have greatly denigrated the excellent job he did on the original movie with Leatherface. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre doesn't need a sequel and he knew it. Its sad that this great actor is no longer with us, R.I.P.
Imagine being the guy that originally had the part but was too busy being drunk. I bet that one hurt in the long run.
Great explanation of the hook scene.

Gunnar, I would argue that the preservation of Grandpa and Grandma, is also Ed Gein. & i like your observation of The Cook & Ed Gein, love that.
I wish I could have met them. It’s my favorite horror movie of all time, and this is coming from someone who doesn’t particularly enjoy horror movies.
R.I.P. Brother Texas Chainsaw Massacre wouldn't be shit with out you.
RIP you great Icon ❤️😭I will love youuuu always
what a great guy. best leatherface there ever was. may he rest in peace. 💔
He was the best part of The series
The face mask gets me everytime
The original scared the absolute crap out of me. I tried to watch it several times but could never get through it. It absolutely terrified me. A true horror film… the pacing & rawness is unmatched.
This crowd was dead. Too bad they didn't have any energy for a legend 😞
I never knew George Lucas was leatherface
9:03 So leatherface just confirmed he was so keyed up
You seriously needed a tripod here. All that moving around with the camera got me seasick.

R.I.P GUNNAR HANSEN THE SAW IS FAMILY
He literally made the movie with what he is explaining, the best parts he did on his own, maybe more so accidentally but he clearly was fed up with making the movie. RIP man

The original will forever be legendary, you just can't beat it and he's the best Bubba. ❤️🙌🏻❤️ Also, may he R.I.P!
Wow he's such an amazing guy. An honour to wear a leatherface cosplay.
That is key the slamming of the door in the sound of whatever score that was does get you. Quentin Tarantino said the Texas chainsaw massacre is a perfect movie from beginning to end and I agree
RIP Gunnar Hansen. What a legend
And this legend of a man is what made Texas Chainsaw Massacre what it is. Playjng a brilliant protagonist in the movie
Rest up u big lovable man
He was the subject of my nightmares after I saw that movie at 13.
I know he underplays the script a bit in this interview but just everything he does as Leatherface, his mannerisms, his reactions and movements all come together to create an obscure but renowned character.
Love love Gunner Hansen!! TCM “74” was my very first horror movie when I was like 4 yrs old on Betamax 🤣😂 It made me the person I am today!! LOVE YOU GUNNER “LEATHERFACE “ 🥀🥀RIP GUNNER 🥀🥀YOUR ALWAYS IN MY ❤️ HEART ❤️ Tobe Hooper is the person who molded me into the point I’m in the process of filming one of my short horror stories..filming in 33mm camera!

Crowd talking in the background and people getting up and walking all throughout the interview. It seems that the interview was a very minor occurrence at Horrorcon.
I missed out. this must have been awesome in person.
This is the most frightening movie have ever seen !
Texas Chainsaw Massacre is like THE horror movie in my mind

I wanted to hear the questions and answers. Oh well...
Cool. Got a little distracted, though, from the quiet din of folks CONSTANTLY yakking in the back. Added a slight shopping mall effect that wasn't really ideal. Kudos to GH, who looked like he was looking out at the chattering ninnies, but keeping cool and just simply relating what he had to say. For the last couple of minutes,, I sure hope that wasn't open-mouthed eating (from, the filmer?) in the background. Glad GH went into the whole low-register-note-accentuating-slamming-of-door-carrying-into-gal-on-swings score....always appreciated that, as well as (not mentioned but also cool), immediately after that door slam, the camera tracks under the bench, as the house looms ominously before TM and us. I think my fave shot is either Leatherface suddenly saying hi out of the bushes in the dark, or a bound-to-chair Sally's POV of the gang, at the table, especially a be-wigged Leatherface sidling all fancy-like, SLOWLY, towards us. Still wish he ditched the apron.
RIP Gunnar Hansen
Plot twist. Gunnar is actually George Lucas.
Yeah, he was the scariest thing I ever saw when I was 12.
In a 1988 interview he said UNFORTUNATELY I will be remembered as Leatherface! WTF Gunnar! Actors can be such a pain in the ass. YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN PROUD OF THAT STATUS! and I overheard him say in 1993 at Texas First Fangoria Convention that it was somewhat of an inconvience being there. Shame on you Gunnar! Yes you will be remembered as LEATHERFACE and nothing else!

He’s defiantly proud to be Leatherface, actors are always like this though. And it makes sense, you don’t want to be remembered as your character. You want to be remembered as you. That’s one of rainn Wilson’s biggest problems too. He doesn’t want to be remembered as Dwight Schrute. He wants to be remembered as Rainn Wilson. Even though he is undoubtably proud to act as such a monumental character in TV history
another ed gein reference was how leatherface eats dinner with his family. ed gein loved his mother and never hurt her. she would cook him dinner. yet gein was a sadistic, cannibalistic killer. that was the great original twist of this movie
