The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974)
Description
It's gonna be FUUUUUUNNNN!
In 1974, Tobe Hooper unleashed horror unlike any seen before and started the modern slasher genre with the seminal horror film The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Audiences watched in terror as Sally and Franklin Hardesty and their three friends travel through a rural Texas town and pick up a hitchhiker, beginning their terrifying encounter with a crazed, cannibalistic family. It can easily be said that without Leatherface, we would not have had Michael Myers, Jason Voorhees, or even Freddy Krueger. Join Now Playing Podcast hosts Arnie, Brock, and Stuart as they journey with Sally and Franklin deep into the heart of Texas and review all six Texas Chainsaw Massacre films, starting with the 1974 original. It is classic horror, but does it hold up in the 21st century? Listen to find out!
