In 1974, director Tobe Hooper brought us THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE. An
independent production, shot in the heat of a Texas summer, that introduced us to a
chainsaw-wielding cannibal called Leatherface. And his twisted family. It was a box office hit.
And quickly became one of the most popular and respected horror films of all time. So, of
course, there was eventually a remake. Produced by one of the biggest, flashiest filmmakers
in the industry. Directed by a music video director in his feature debut. Starring an actress
from a family friendly TV show. It sounds like a recipe for disaster. But when the remake was
released in 2003, it was another success story. And we’re going to dig into the making of the
TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE remake in this episode of What the F*ck Happened to This
Horror Movie!
