Texas Chainsaw Massacre true Story

Tobe Hooper film has changed gender. Perhaps most impressive of Texas Chainsaw Massacre is the myth and legend has become and the impact it has had. Often imitated, and so often misunderstood (or perhaps misremembered), the film was incredibly powerful. Everyone moves through the film, even people who have not seen it.
Hooper Much is written reasons for the film, I will not address these here I would emphasize aspects of the camera. These are important but (I hope the comments will be posted) and can be read in several articles. I will say I loved reading that seemed to have been inspired (in part) by standing in a long line at a store and the idea that he could get people to move if he had a chainsaw. This is not only fun, but requires a perfect example of why this genre is so human and should be much more accepted.
With all the fame of the film, is essentially bloodless. I was really impressed by this as I saw it again for this countdown. Instead of showing the blood and carnage, Hooper enjoys the opportunities to hide the blood. The screams and shrieks seem to substitute while the absolute strangeness of the images and characters builds and builds his plot. The crudeness of the camera is so important in the film. His mockumentary style was effective, unless it reinforces the "true story" tagline, but mostly because I believe that impressive third person POV. This is the best score in the home and on the porch. He also uses some wonderfully exciting close-ups that change things and create suspense. Dinner seen is one of the greatest horror scenes in the film about it for this reason. Marilyn Burns eyes seem to see things you can not, as the group makes fun of it and provides the best way to achieve their disappearance. Hooper wants us to violence in our minds, showing us everything we need and he knows the rest will come from us.
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is one of my first moments of terror (and favorite), I was not alive when it was released, but a copy is available in my home as a child and I remember the impact of the idea that this was a true story. As I think most of it now, knowing that it is so I go back and forth on whether this is a kind of cheap trick (not so much with the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, but some of the other films that have used this) or if be thought of more as a stylistic choice. There is also the strange (guilty) the humor that can be felt every time the movie continues. This can be done in self defense, but can hardly help laughing at some of the extravagance of the family.
I also wanted to comment Leatherface as a villain. Spastic What absolute monster. Sincerely unknown history with his face hidden further fueling the sense of non-clarity. Why is this happening? He beat people with his hammer is one of the classic moments rewind and Hooper gives you 2 or 3 chances to see it. He is absolutely brutal, but also sad. The rest of the family are important, of course, however, is Leatherface that you can not take your eyes off this strange mass murderer.
In 80 minutes, Hooper offers a show that is "yes" macabre and scary, but in reality is merely good. This is independent film-is a great example of maximizing what you have and do it in a way that convinces us that funding constraints are truly brilliant minds can thrive.
