We move on to the morally retrograde nightmare THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE on Oct 18. Just as Hitchcock's PSYCHO was based on the life of deeply disturbed farmer Ed Gein, so is this little story of depravity and dementia. Thanks to a smart script and documentary-style camerawork, THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE achieves start-to-finish suspense, making it a master-class in low-budget exploitation cinema.
