Darkish Sky Movies has launched a brand new trailer celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of the 1974 horror basic The Texas Chain Noticed Bloodbath directed by Tobe Hooper.
The film was digitally restored in 2014 for its fortieth anniversary, and for its massive fiftieth, TTCM shall be re-released in theaters once more in October this yr.
I’ve by no means seen the film on the massive display screen. The primary time I watched it was on a VHS tape after I was in jr. excessive and the film disturbed the hell out of me! I had horrific nightmares after watching this movie!
The outline reads: “50 years in the past, 5 youths on a weekend getaway within the Texas countryside fell prey to a butcher in a masks fabricated from human pores and skin and his cannibalistic household and horror cinema would by no means be the identical.
“Violent, confrontational, and shockingly real looking, director Tobe Hooper’s The Texas Chain Noticed Bloodbath terrified audiences in a manner by no means thought attainable when it was unleashed on a politically and socially tumultuous America in 1974.”
“Dealing with a storm of controversy, censorship, and outcry all through its troubled launch, this masterpiece of horror has stood the take a look at of time to turn into a landmark movement image and cultural milestone.”
It’s fairly loopy, do you know that Hooper restricted the quantity of onscreen gore as a result of he needed to safe a PG score, however the MPAA rated it R anyway.
