LEATHERFACE NEEDS SOME MAKE-UP.............!!
Since I am a "Horror Fan" and had not seen this whole movie, I felt it was time. Understanding that this was a low budget movie , I can forgive a lot of its short comings. However, this movie wasn't really scary, it was just a bit disgusting. I guess it has to get credit for the fact that it started the "slasher" type of horror movie. THAT, is not something you should be proud of.... this was the father of all the sick movies that had plenty of blood but not much of anything else.The last 1/2 hour is just full of "Sally" screaming, I was going to turn the sound off...! And the last scene at the dinner table is more disturbing than scary.To discuss this movie in the same sentence with "Psycho' is an utter insult to Alfred Hitchcock. I think it is worth seeing, to try and understand the hype, but like someone else said....this is the '70's "Blair Witch" also an over rated movie.See it once......and forget it, because it was a good first try by a talented director with no money, but it is just that...a good try considering the finances...Rent "Psycho" or "Halloween"....REAL horror movies.....
