Dr. Selma Purac (Western University Asst. Prof) helps "Set the Context" with a special introduction - Don't miss this 4K restoration presentation for one of the most important films in cinema history!
When Sally (Marilyn Burns) hears that her grandfather's grave may have been vandalized, she and her paraplegic brother, Franklin (Paul A. Partain), set out with their friends to investigate. After a detour to their family's old farmhouse, they discover a group of crazed, murderous outcasts living next door. As the group is attacked one by one by the chainsaw-wielding Leatherface (Gunnar Hansen), who wears a mask of human skin, the survivors must do everything they can to escape.
THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE - FILM REVIEW
★★★★★
"The most purely horrifying horror movie ever made. A quarter of a century on, power-tools may have been overused blunting the sheer gall of using a title as up-front as this, but Tobe Hooper's sick, inventive little film remains as disturbing, suspenseful and shattering as the day it first saw the light of a drive-in screen (...) Usually, when they say 'Not for those of a nervous disposition', it's shameless hype; this time, they mean it." - William Thomas, EMPIRE (FULL REVIEW HERE)
