I have lived here in Texas my whole life and I have heard from Multiple people from One side of this State to Another say that they have a “cousin” who is an inmate with or a guard over the real Leatherface sitting on Death Row. Now like I said earlier, None of the Movie is true accounts of any murders in Texas but The Film makes you believe that it is an it did happen just like that. The final reason why THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE is the Greatest Horror Movie Ever Made is The Hype and Legend it has Created around the World. There is Truth behind the fact that Leatherface is a spinoff take of Ed Gein but that is the Only Basis the Movie has in reality, None of this was True. However like Tobe Hooper has commented, this was supposed to take place in the summer of 1973, which is the same time as they were filming this movie, so It Couldn’t have been true. In Fact from the very beginning of the Movie Itself from John Larroquette introduction tells you that this is a true story. You have a cannibal in a Human flesh Mask slaughtering people with a chainsaw, a sledgehammer and suspending them up on meat hooks, and You Never doubt that what you’re seeing is Real. The Equally believable performances by the villains Gunnar Hansen, Ed Neal and Jim Siedow and The Victims Marilyn Burns, Teri McMinn and William Vail were equally Outstanding. The Second reason is it’s such a superb Film!! The Realism and Terror the Film Projects have Rarely been Captured as well as in THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE. Also because so much of its initial buzz was a spread by word of mouth throughout the Drive Ins of America, Everyone was asking each other “Have you seen THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE?” Those who hadn’t made sure they did just after Hearing The Title. There is No Horror Movie with a Descriptive a Title as THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE. There are Many reason’s why this film is considered so good by so many, but the first would be the title. Though Banned in Many Countries when it premiered in 1974 it is now considered to be one of the prime Examples of American Horror Films. A Young Director with an inexperienced cast and a minimal budget in the summer of 1973 created a Horror masterpiece. I Thought it would be about time for me to review what I believe to be The Greatest Horror Movie ever made THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE.
