Tobe Hooper's influential cult classic continues the subgenre of horror films based on the life and "career" of Wisconsin serial killer Ed Gein, which began with Alfred Hitchcock's own influential cult classic Psycho. When Sally Hardesty (Marilyn Burns) hears that the Texas cemetery where her grandfather is buried has been vandalized, she gathers her wheelchair-bound brother Franklin (Paul A. Partain) and several other friends together to see if grandpa's remains are still in one piece. While in the area, Sally and her friends decide to visit grandfather's old farmhouse. Unfortunately, a family of homicidal slaughterhouse workers who take their job home with them have taken over the house next door. Included amongst the brood is Leatherface (Gunnar Hansen), a chainsaw-wielding human horror show who wears a face mask made out of human skin. Sally's friends are rapidly exterminated one-by-one by the next-door neighbors, leaving only Sally left to fight off Leatherface and his clan. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

Review For The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
The picture gets to you more through its intensity than its craft, but Hooper does have a talent.
Dave Kehr-Chicago Reader

Despite the heavy doses of gore in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, Tobe Hooper's pic is well-made for an exploiter of its type.
Variety Staff-Variety

The movie is some kind of weird, off-the-wall achievement. I can't imagine why anyone would want to make a movie like this, and yet it's well-made, well-acted, and all too effective.
Roger Ebert-Chicago Sun-Times

Though certain aspects of the film don't hold up that well, Tobe Hooper's seminal horror remains a hugely disturbing experience.
Stephen Carty-Flix Capacitor

Chainsaw-wielding Leatherface remains one of the most disturbing characters in horror.
Sophie Morris-Independent

Still a remarkable and utterly unnerving horror film to this day...
Felix Vasquez Jr.-Cinema Crazed

Best for older teens and adults only.
Beth Pratt-Common Sense Media

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre doesn't try anything funny, there are no winks to the audience. And it's all the better because of it.
Tom Coates-BBC

Artfully documentarylike and shot under conditions that produced genuinely traumatized performances, the original Massacre eschews cheap thrills and attacks the psyche.
Stan Hall-Oregonian

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre chopped up our expectations more than 30 years ago, and for that we will always remember - and be thankful that some experiences do stay up on the screen.
Todd Gilchrist-IGN Movies

All these elements set the stage for some of the most prolonged scenes of sustained panic ever captured by cinema, as Hooper infects characters and viewers alike with the thrill of a madness from which there can be no real escape.
Anton Bitel-Eye for Film

A cutthroat, unendingly bleak masterpiece of horror cinema.
Dustin Putman-DustinPutman.com

It's a masterpiece, pure and simple..a smart young director summing up the basest instincts of his species.
Tim Brayton-Antagony & Ecstasy

Seeing this again recently has convinced me that it's quite a bit better than I initially judged.
Jeffrey M. Anderson-Combustible Celluloid

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre loses none of its intensity as the years go by.
Ben Cobb-Film4

The violence is outdated by today's standards, but the original Chainsaw still packs a punch with its rough look and disturbing overtones.
Mike Emery-Austin Chronicle

The Great American Horror Movie.
Rob Gonsalves-eFilmCritic.com

The film's intense final half achieves its unshakable effect through a combination of things aside from graphic gore.
Michael Dequina-TheMovieReport.com

A profoundly sensitive look at social prejudices and the toll said prejudices take on the human social organism.
Walter Chaw-Film Freak Central

An intelligent, absorbing, and deeply disturbing horror film that is nearly bloodless in its depiction of violence.
