This week on Horror hour with the Hanna's, we revisit Tobe Hooper’s The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974), one of the most influential horror films ever made. What begins as a road trip for a group of friends quickly descends into a nightmare of isolation, brutality, and madness when they cross paths with Leatherface and his deranged family deep in rural Texas.
We explore how the film’s gritty, documentary-like style, relentless tension, and shocking violence reshaped the horror genre. With its low-budget ingenuity and grim atmosphere, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre became a landmark of exploitation cinema—and a cornerstone of slasher history. Nearly 50 years later, it remains just as disturbing and relevant.
