Texas Chain Saw Massacre
This week's episode kicks off Horror Month at What Did We Miss? with four straight weeks of creepy, crawly episodes. Kicking things off is the 1974 slasher classic, Texas Chain Saw Massacre, which introduced to world to director Tobe Hooper and one of cinema's most enduring horror icons, Leatherface. For Matt, this is easily an all-time favorite. For Tony, well, he saw the remake if that counts (it doesn't).
In this episode they discuss the origins of the film and Matt's relation to it, the surprising amount of humor, how the remake's excessive grime oversold the idea of the movie's murder house, how a lack of gore does not a PG-rated movie make, and the some of the stunning imagery that - much to Tony's surprise - made this a gorgeous grindhouse slasher flick.
