The idea of the film began in the early 1970s. Toby Hopper, then a faculty member at the University of Texas at Austin and part-time documentary photographer, came up with the idea of a film with the themes of isolation, forest and darkness. He learned from the violence in San Antonio. The creative inspiration was obtained from the crime picture news, and a series of murders committed by the American serial killerwas also the source of the film's material. The film is deeply influenced by cultural and political changes. He hopes to adapt the intentional misleading of real events as a response to government lies such as the Watergate incident, the oil crisis, and the massacres and atrocities in the Vietnam War. The brainstorming news pictures made Hopper believe that talents are real demons, just wearing various masks, so he proposed the idea of letting the murderers in the film wear masks. He once worked in a crowded hardware store and got the inspiration to use a chain saw to break out of the crowd.

So I don't know why it's scary. What's the psychology of people always giving old films high ratings? . .

Blu-ray reset. Groundbreaking: The first serial killer horror movie theme (however, this film has no blood), the second female character that established the Texas Chainsaw series like killing pigs endlessly howling (the last woman who escaped screamed and jumped almost all the time) The escape from the window is as fierce as a gorilla, laughing to death), and thirdly, the decorations composed of the skeletons of various creatures have artistic elements from shamans, and later "Silence of the Lambs" and the like have been inherited and carried forward. The loose main line integrates documentary and B-level aesthetics, and a lot of effort is put into the atmosphere. Before the appearance of the perverted family, the paralyzed man in these five people looked like a mental illness, which is a kind of foreshadowing. The history of the slaughterhouse is discussed. A broader evil, abuse of elevation, and finally the human-faced chainsaw dance, although the character is silent, the muted mechanical tremors of the chainsaw give it a good undertone of the evil it tries to focus on humans question. Of course, the film is not well done. The internalized motivation and the woman's noisy howl cancel each other out. You have to say show off. It has no dew points and blood splashes. Poorly done ragged B-movie limitations
