Product: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (Original Uncut) [Region 2] (1974)
Rating: 5.0
If you like scary movies then this is a must.
The first time I watched The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was back in 1975 the old fashion way: at the movie theatre with the huge screen. I was 13 years old. At that time I had already seen "The Exorcist" a few times, and in my young opinion the best scary movie of all time; however, I didn't really get frighten watching The Exorcist, so when I heard TCM was one of the "scariest movies of all time" I said no way; if The Exorcist didn't scare me, then most likely no other movie will. I was terribly wrong.The first few minutes of the movie are a bit slow, but shortly when the first victim is walking down the hallway in the house and stands in front of that creepy wall, and the wall slides open, and this creature appears with a sledgehammer, it was time to cover my eyes with both of my hands, and that's how I watched the rest of the movie; between the fingers of my hands. Fine, I'll admit it, till this date, I still watch this movie the same way; between my fingers.By the way, if you liked this movie, I highly recommend a 1975 foreign film called "Let Sleeping Corpses Lie." It was released in the U.S. as "Don't Open the Window." This is the best zombie movie of all time.
