The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. 1974.
Five friends head out to Texas after graves were vandalised and stumble upon a farm house and find the owners are cannibals.
When this was released in the late 90s I found it to be boring and wondered why this was on the banned list, we only see one person...or hear one person getting hacked up by a chainsaw while alive, one person dead and being sliced. Total false advertisement for a film, yet over the years it has grown on me, Edwin Neal playing the creepy hitch hiker was basically a good start to meet the family of killers.
Good old Tobe Hooper managed to give us a curve ball, when Sally runs from the house and heads back to the gas station and think ok she is safe only for the owner to be the head of the family and back to square one. Kudos for Guner Hansen to be in a heavy suit and mask and able to give us a somewhat iconic ending.
