"You damn fool...you ruined the door!".
After you've stopped screaming you'll start laughing.I must say that as a horror film it IS the most horrific film I've ever seen: a young girl put on a meat-hook then forced to watch leatherface chop off her boyfriend's head!!!!????However, the horror is only part of the film. The end sequence in the house is the FUNNIEST sequence in film history. This is all down to the genius that is leatherface. Simply put, apart from donning wig and make-up he also SQUAWKS like a pig AT THE SAME TIME as he is 'talking'!!!! Believe me when I say that I was on the floor laughing!!!! The over-dubbed squawks are sensational!Taken as a horror film TCM has no rivals at all. IT IS the best horror film ever made. In fact, once you get over the initial shock of what you are seeing, the second half (need for repeated viewings) as well being horrifying, is absolutely hilarious. The commentary is awesome too, and, of course full of annecdotes.The Best Horror + The Best Comedy = IT HAPPENEDA MUST PURCHASE.
