And, speaking about "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" - I certainly can't imagine how anyone (in their right mind) could actually make it a steady diet of watching films from this one's horrific sub-genre. I really can't. Sick, twisted, deranged, cruel and sadistic - Even though this 1974 horror film (which is now 42 years old) still manages to pack quite a wallop when it comes to delivering plenty of heart-pounding terror - I understand that (by today's standards of brutal slasher films) "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" is actually fairly tame by comparison. And, I certainly have no doubt about that. Featuring the obese, chainsaw-wielding, transvestite known as "Leatherface" - I have to admit that this truly disturbing picture did, indeed, contain some priceless moments of unintentional humour, as well. And, I, for one, was glad for that - 'Cause this certainly helped to alleviate some of the overbearing and oppressive brutality that prevailed throughout.....
