Fun fact according to IMDb trivia: The close-up of Leatherface cutting his leg on the chainsaw was the very last shot to be filmed. The actor was wearing a metal plate over his leg, which was then covered with a piece of meat and a blood bag. His scream was the actor's genuine scream of pain, as the chainsaw repeatedly hit the plate. The friction from this caused the plate to get very hot and it burned his leg.

Wow they had some balls back then

BBC Four did a three part documentary series about ten years ago called A History of Horror, in it host Mark Gatiss interviews Tobe Hooper who when talking about the filming conditions said, "they all hated me at the end of the movie... there were two wrap parties and mine was sitting alone on the porch of the house". I do recommend checking out A History Of Horror, all of it's on KZread so easy to find.

Most HORRIFYING, SCARIEST, DISTURBING, NIGHTMARE INDUCING movie EVER made. Saw it in 1974, alone, at 15, and it is still in my nightmares.

this is a really great review! i'm glad you included all those details in the beginning, i didn't know most if not all of them, you also just add some great takes and perspectives i haven't heard from other reviews. i knew nothing about this movie going in and it became one of my favorites immediately. looking forward to more videos from you!

Soooo, I watched this movie for the first time about a year ago. I was home alone, with some lights one, watching this and I cannot believe how much I loved this movie and how down right scary it was! I knew how this movie would play out, not from spoilers, just a feeling, and was still jaw dropped by this. It is always so refreshing to see a horror movie that is beyond terrifying. I put this movie in the same group as the original Pet Sematary, Suspiria, The Shining, A Nightmare on Elm Street, among a few others not only as one of the scariest horror movies ever made, but as horror movies that I actually find scary. I would love to see you make a video for what you think are the scariest movies of all time. But with all that being said, I don't think I will be joining you for most of the other movies because I have only seen the remake, and from what people say about the rest, I have no interest in watching them

You brought up so many interesting points about how bad it was for the actors to work on this film. They really worked hard, for little pay, to make this movie.

Nice review, some people may say it's plot is thin but the simplicity works to its benefit.

All around though, any new comer will be just as locked in their chair as sally was. Looking forward to your thoughts on the sequels.

That couldn't have all been acting on Sally's part, some of that had to have been pure insane happiness to not have to deal with those shooting conditions anymore lol 😂😂.

This movie is so terrifying because for me my grandparents live in the middle of nowhere in Arkansas so I always kind of imagine this kind of thing happening literally right next-door especially since we have they have race car races like at like 9 o’clock at night and my brain actually change them into chainsaws even though they’re not yeah

Such a classic movie what made it such a great movie is that it doesn’t show a lot of gore, it left u to imagine what happenes in the death scenes. It’s more disturbing then scary one of my favorite horror films of all time! Great review! :)

My mother took me to see the Texas Chainsaw Massacre when i was 10 years old. I was shaking in my pumas, it was absolutely terrifying! For a movie that was not particularly gory they were able to touch a nerve with the pacing, suspense, and piercing music. TCM is just as terrifying today as it was 40+ years ago. One of the more important components about TCM is that it can actually happen. It's a very plausible situation. That alone is fuckin scary. 😆

Sally is one of my top 5 final girls for sure. This girl went through hell and is a survivor. You should watch and review the original Black Christmas. It came out in 1974 as well, and also has an early final girl. It happens to be one of my favorites. I think I've read that John Carpenter was actually inspired by it.

I just finished the movie not even five minutes ago and I’m genuinely trying to find out how people like this movie and how she’s a fave “final girl”. Maybe it’s because the movie is from 1974 but Sally was pissing me off the whole time. Getting beat up by a broom is where I knew this whole movie was a joke. The constant screaming leading them straight to her was ridiculous. The flailing arms was insane. She was completely unharmed and wasn’t even putting up a fight. Just constant flailing and screaming even when she did have a chance. The truck scene is what I really found hilarious. Thankfully she got away but she has no qualities that all final girls have. I haven’t watched a lot but from all the final girls, she’s def the worst one and would be the first to die in a final girl movie.

Absolute favortie horror movie. Great review!

You ought to review The Funhouse, that's also a really good horror film directed by Tobe Hooper.

You left out the creepy narration that introduced the film at the very beginning. Usually when I would watch those creepy tv shows (back in the day) that would have an opening narration starting with "The show you are about to see...." I would be creeped out. Case in point: Unsolved Mysteries ("....what you are about to see is not a news broadcast). I love how this movie started out with "The film which you are about to see...." and then followed with a narration of what's to come. It seemed quite creepy and not something you often see at the beginning of a horror film.

I am incredibly interested to see your take on this franchise BECAUSE not one of these movies is cohesive with the next lol. This is the one franchise I've never been able to get into. I like the original. Enjoy the remake and that's kinda where it ends for me. I think the final girl thing is maybe because of that. With Friday, Halloween, Nightmare, Scream...those all feel like the same movie genre so the same people come back to enjoy them and final girls are compared and in ALL of those, final girls are revisited at least once, if only for a small moment. This is a very different franchise and I feel like because its so different it doesn't have the solid fanbase the others do so the final girl falls through the crack of that broken foundation. That's just my opinion. Maybe I will join this journey with you and actually watch them all ALL the way through because I've kinda watched at them and given up midway through.

My fave horror movie of all time. Everything about it is just so well done, sadly to well done in fact. This series became VERY dedicated to remaking the first movie over and over again because it was just so good so the series as a result is pretty repetitive. You may dislike a lot of it. Number 4 to me is an under rated gem(everyone else hates it but I love it because it is so random and none logical, which is pretty much why I love the first film). The second is not to good in my book, part 3 is pure middle ground. The remake, as far as remakes go is really, REALLY good and Texas Chainsaw 3D is pretty much Friday the 13th done with Leatherface instead of Jason. The other ones are REALLY bad. That's my take on the full series.

I get to use 1 of my favorite words "visceral". This movie stands out for that slimy, gritty very un polished real life look and feel. Oddly enough both Wes Craven and Tobe Hooper actually excel at low budget and big budget movies. You should check out "Funhouse" from Tobe Hooper there's something beautiful about the way it is shot. This movie used to make me very uncomfortable starting from that scene in the van. For some reason we used to impressions of the Franklin character back in the day, probably cuz we were high and it just made sense.
