Gein, who was found guilty of murdering a hardware store owner named Bernice Worden in 1968, was eventually institutionalized for being, well, really mentally unwell. Director Tobe Hooper was inspired by the graphic way the news covered the arrest of serial killer Elmer Wayne Henley in 1973-as well as the televised coverage of the Vietnam War. One of the things that’s cool about the original film is that it opens with a crawl that resembles a documentary or news report, which frames it as if it were a true story. One notable member of the cannibalistic fam is Leatherface, whose preferred method of killing is with a chain saw. Delightful! If you’ve already seen the film-which you should if your interests include being emotionally traumatized-then you know it’s about a group of friends who are preyed on by a family of cannibals in the middle of nowhere.
#Texas chain saw massacre face movie
The bad news is that the movie is most definitely based on a real-life murderer.
The good news is that The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is technically fictional. With a new Texas Chainsaw Massacre film starring Elsie Fisher coming to Netflix literally today, Leatherface fans are looking back at the franchise that began in 1974.
