Product: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (Original Uncut) [Region 2] (1974)
Rating: 5.0
My favorite movie, no question
I'm gonna try to tell you what all the other reviewers did not tell you.This has to be the greatest horror movie of all time. I'm a huge fan of the "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" series. But none of its sequels match up to the original's sheer greatness.About the movie: Ok, let me start off first with the extremely simple plot: there isn't one, unless you call kids riding in an old van and then running into my favorite psychos a plot. The main man here mostly is Leatherface, which holds in his hand a deadly chainsaw. Watch the movie and you will see exactly what "deadly" means. His role is to cut up his intruders. The way the film is shot is awesome. I wish all horror films were shot this way. The picture is very grainy, and that makes it better. You pretty much have to be a fan of violence, or at least be a fan of horror movies to really appreciate just how great this movie really is. The brutality level is high, the gore level is lower than a depressed dead woman, and gore-hounds and weak-hearted people can stay far away from this movie. For this movie to really scare you, you must go in with the right mood.I really believe in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I believe most everything on this movie really did happen.
