The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)
From Amazon:
This sensational, extremely influential, 1974 low-budget horror movie directed by Tobe Hooper (Poltergeist, Lifeforce, Salem's Lot), may be notorious for its title, but it's also a damn fine piece of moviemaking. And it's blood-curdling scary, too. Loosely based on the true crimes of Ed Gein (also a partial inspiration for Psycho), the original Jeffrey Dahmer, Texas Chainsaw Massacre follows a group of teenagers who pick up a hitchhiker and wind up in a backwoods horror chamber where they're held captive, tortured, chopped up, and impaled on meat hooks by a demented cannibalistic family, including a...

Don't let the low-budget label fool you. This film is well-acted, well made, and probably the most frighteningly effective horror film you will ever see.
Tobe Hooper doesn't need another achievement in his life. he is set in the annals of horror with this film. Along with George A. Romero's Night of the Living Dead, and...

None of the other parts nor the remakes doesnt even compare, Although part 2 is a great sequel it is campier than the original it is still a great sequel. The film is very gritty almost like a documentary feel to it. Tobe Hooper will...

'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre' is a brutal, nasty piece of work, but also probably ranks as one of the true masterpieces of American horror cinema. Having watched it many times, I still find it terrifying, and it always leaves me feeling unpleasant and uncomfortable; while not as shocking as it would have been 30 years...
