This week, we’re firing up the chainsaw and diving into one of the most influential horror films of all time: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974). Whether you love it, hate it, or simply respect its place in horror history, there’s no denying the cultural impact of Leatherface’s grim, gritty debut.

We break down the dinner scene that feels like a fever dream you can’t wake up from, the wild behind-the-scenes stories that make the movie somehow even more unhinged, and why this sun-baked nightmare still crawls under your skin after all these years. And of course…we air out some very strong, very justified feelings about Franklin. Join us for a fun, unhinged, deeply horror-nerdy breakdown of a movie that shaped the entire genre.

Tangents Include: Why November 1st should officially be Horror New Year’s Day, our complete and utter disdain for Franklin, peeing in a can (yes… it came up), and much more!
