The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

This could quite possible rank in my top 5 scariest horror movies of all time. The reason I say this is because is in some backwater hick county, there could actually be people messed up enough to really kill people and serve them to others as bar-b-q. The intorduction alone gives us a bad feeling in the stomach. Even with it's bad film quality, the Texas Chainsaw Massacre series has almost become a cult classic amoungst it's viewers. The mood set is almost unmatched by any other movie I've ever seen. As I watched the film, I wondered to myself if there were any vegitarians involved in the production of this film. If you've seen it, you know what I mean. It has very little gore in it, and a lot is left up to the imagination, but that can do wonders. I give this one a 5 out of 5.

Random Thoughts

• I'll never eat meat again... or at least until lunch.
• Well that IS true. He was the last hitchhiker you'll ever pick up...
• If you knock on someone's door, and no one answers, that must mean to walk right in.
• I wonder what happened to the trucker left with Leatherface at the end?
