Description
Join MG for a Halloween treat as we take on our first Twitch-based episode! Classic films always set a standard, but few movies are so groundbreaking that they create an entirely new genre, and Tobe Hooper's terrifying The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is one of the biggest game-changers in cinema history. Mixing a low-fi, almost documentary flavor with high-concept horror and a touch of political allegory, this panic-attack of a movie was a massive hit for its tiny budget, and it set the stage for a dozen horror franchises to come with its transgressive chills!
