A Real Nightmare
What happend to movies like this? This brilliant masterpiece is extremely underrated. In my opinion Gunnar Hansen is the only Leatherface. Very well acted movie. Cinematography is at it's best. One of the more enjoyable features on this DVD is the commentary by Tobe Hooper, Gunnar Hansen and Daniel Pearl. Watch this commentary at the end when Leatherface cuts his leg, it's very humerous! The only real downfall to this is there is no 5.1 Dolby or DTS.I first saw this movie when I was about 12. I had the heebie jeebies about meat hooks for years. My favorite scene will always be the "Escape from Hell". When Marilyn Burns runs for her life and Edwin Neal (Hitchhiker) slashes her with a straight razor. Highly recommended. Watch it.
