Celebrate 50 years of a rip roaring chain saw from Texas with screams of excitement and praise to honor the members of the original cast and crew for the years of horrifying nightmares!
In 1973 a small group of film students in Texas conjured a story and a small amount of money to create a film so shocking and violent that they left a permanent scar on celluloid and the public conscience, forever changing cinematic history.
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was unleashed unto the world in October of 1974 by Director Tobe Hooper and co-written with producer Kim Henkel, the film stars Marilyn Burns, Paul A. Partain, Terri McMinn, Allen Danziger, William Vail, Edwin Neal, Jim Siedow, John Dugan and Gunnar Hansen as Leatherface. Upon release, the film was deemed so violent that it received an X rating and was banned in multiple countries. Contributing to the response was the billing of the film as a “true story”, which was a marketing ploy to further affect audiences in an effort to attract more movie goers.
