For me it’s “The events of that day were lead to the discovery of one of the most bizarre crimes in the annals of American history, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre”
I dunno how to put this into words but I’m gonna do the best I can. In today’s world we say “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre” so casually, like it means nothing. But here, the way he says “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre” really makes it seem like a horrifying event that actually happened. Like you’re about to watch a documentary on a murder case or something. It’s incredible.
Yes, it was reported today on the online website, Marijuana Moment. I'm a monthly donor so I can keep up on the legalization. I hope I don't die before it becomes legal.
I love how the movie starts with the corpse tied to the tombstone and the radio in the background explaining what had happened. This movie is an absolute masterpiece in the way it builds up to the horror. The innocence of the youths just driving to make sure their loved ones graves weren't harmed. The drunk sheriff was eerie as hell. Then, they pick up the guy that actually did the grave robbing on the side of the road, carrying a bag of items he looted from the graves. Just a great movie. Think I'll watch it tonight.
Sheriff wasn't drunk, that was basically the town drunk that was talking. He said he's seen things. Implying he saw the hitchhiker and I guess the family do some shit, but he didn't say anything. At least that's what I thought he may have been implying.
Still can’t believe that John Larroquette was in his mid to late 20s when he did the narration for this movie, he’d be in his 50s when he did the narration for the remake and now he’s in his 70s and he did the narration once again for the 2022 Netflix movie.
I remember watching a double header at the local theater...this one, and immediately after, Young Frankenstein. After watching TCM, there was a ten minute break before the next movie started. I watched about 90% of the people make a mad dash out the door of the theater, women were crying, men were silent but you could see what was going on inside their heads. People were beyond shocked, and all this before CGI. Greatest horror? slasher? film of all time. I felt like I was in the movie and this was happening to me.
It’s definitely one of the OG slasher’s next to Halloween since it came out in 74 my top two slashers are Nightmare on Elm street and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre those two characters are the scariest in my opinion for their personalities and abilities freddy killing you in your dreams as you are powerless and afraid and leather gutting you with a chainsaw and wearing your face as he eats you that is way more terrifying than a hockey mask and a william shatner mask
What was real: 1- Furniture made of bones. Most of the story was inspired by serial killer Ed Gein, who used the bones of his victims to make furniture. He was also known to exhume bodies from graves to make their corpses his furniture 2- Leatherface' mask. Ed Gein wore masks made of human skin. 3- Chainsaws. Chainsaws were Ed Gein's signature weapon 4- Cannibalism. Ed Gein ate his victims What was fictional: 1- The story as a whole. There was no cannibalistic family, Ed Gein committed his murders solo. 2- The setting. Ed Gein lived in Wisconsin 3- The body count. Ed Gein only had two confirmed murders, both were middle-aged women 4- The time. Ed Gein's first murder was in 1954 and the second was in 1957, not a group of people all killed at once
Gein was not a serial killer. He killed two people on two separate occasions. He was also trying to recreate his dead mother. He also did not use a chainsaw. The idea of Leatherface using a chainsaw was when Tobe Hooper was in a hardware store and had grown frustrated in waiting in line. He saw a chainsaw display and thought it would be an easy way to cut down the line, that frustration is what led to the chainsaw being Leatherfaces signature weapon
Ooo, I was 8 or so years old in 1974 when my father brought us to the drive-in to see this movie. This would be a good one to see in the theater or drive-in again. I am 57 today and might have to get the DVD on this one.
I can’t believe this is the same actor that played Dan fielding on night court. It’s hilarious in all honesty and John larroquette just has an elegance to his baritone voice
It should be noted that although the movie is a work of fiction, it WAS actually inspired by and very loosely based on a real life psychopath: Ed Gein, who also provided inspiration for another great horror film, Psycho by Alfred Hitchcock. In fact, A bonus feature on the DVD of the 2003 remake is a documentary about Gein's sinister debauchery.
John Larroquette I believe trained for radio work the director of the original Texas chainsaw movie asked him as a favor to do the intro work, which got John's start in movies tv later on they paid him a good check to do the future intros.
This opening alone, For me, Still scares the crap out of me. Because the it open's it's Warning to audience's that are about to watch this movie. But this movie still fell's real to watch.
when I was a kid (before the internet) I remember being terrified hearing this Into because I used to think that He was real but now I know that he is based on several serial killers who where all cannibals.
I used to think it was real too. Now I realize that leatherface is a blend of things... hes the face of what human brutality and sadism can be... everything that leatherface is has been done. 1. Grave robbing, Gein did that. 2 cannibalism, Dahmer and many others including indigenous tribes have done that. 3 chainsaw killing, the cartel covers that. Wearing human skin and masks of people's faces making furniture and sundry items, gein covers that. Blend all those things together and you get leatherface.
@@k3ith29 Dahmer was after this movie. The cannibalism came from stories Hooper was told about Gein, whether or not he knew they were true is unknown. Officially, there is no evidence to suggest Ed Gein was a cannibal
This movie is very gruesome, so I'm planning on uploading the first minute and a half of it. It features the Bryanston Pictures Logo and the opening cards and crawl.
I love this movie. The premise is so deceptively simple. A whole slew of strange and topical influences manifest throughout. I really appreciate the journey I've been on with the original TCM, too: I first became aware of the franchise upon finding a hideous Leather-Face doll in a shop in Turkey, of all places. The film went from being something I dare not imagine, to another horror movie I chewed up as a teenager, to a subject of admiration and fascination. In many ways, the perfect horror film!
Nowhere near as ominously powerful as the voice narrator in TCM 2. Sounds very ineffective, like a struggling talentless actor paid in weed to convey a sense of menace. The second opening is downright chilling and creates a sense of dread. That unsung actor was Brad Crandall
Just liked and subscribed! Thanks for sharing this. I heard they paid John Larroquette for this in marijuana. I unboxed the steelbook 4K of the movie over on my channel.
Thank you, Big John Larroquette. - the Larroquette effect - all worries vanish. I will point out - the most recent chainsaw project achieved bi-triumph- first, finally bringing Bog L back, and second for proving human error is n't even remotely close to capturing how massive a n issue it is - they did not have him say - what would be the only reason to bring him back - "The texas Chainsaw Massacre" so it irritates me. I'm glad he has night court. HEAVYWEIGHT. as Billy Crystal says - it is better to look good than to feel good. TOBE HOOPER- Poltergeist #2 When Leatherface slams the door #3. WHen he sits in his chair -resting after seeing first action in months. Hooper lets us watch him think. do not post this brian. working on Greatest Generation RETURNS...and they did not build hundreds of war cruisers and course the pacific- with a one year revenge four carriers down in 4-6 hours so that we could specialize in making commercials. Sorry, worried Soldier Boy may not be back.
I get it that the opening is to sell people on the idea that it’s a true story, when really it’s inspired by the crimes of Ed Gein. But when you apply the logic that the first film is just a dramatic re-enactment, it sort of makes sense of the franchise’s continuity and why in some films none of it makes sense.
Although The Texas Chain Saw Massacre’s story still didn’t actually happened, but it was inspired by Edward “Ed” Gein of him being a serial killer and bodysnatcher.
I remember watching this for the first time and hearing him say “invalid” like “in-vuh-lid” and I thought he pronounced it wrong Turns out invalid has two pronunciations and definitions
@Notsopeacful well its loosely based on a real serial killer named Ed gein also known as the plain field butcher who made furniture of people skin by grave robing and murdering victims mainly grave robing also he aspired 2 other classic horror films that being pysco and silence of the lamb
