Those of you who weren’t around yet to witness the birth of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre in theatres when it was first released will now get to see Tobe Hooper’s terrifying classic in 4k and on the big screen – like it was intended to be seen.
I am delighted to share the official information for the theatrical re-release of one of the most important horror films of all time – The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
1974-2024 50th ANNIVERSARY – RESTORED IN TERRIFYING 4K – SUPERVISED BY TOBE HOOPER – IN THEATERS FOR SPECIAL RE-RELEASE THIS OCTOBER
Director Tobe Hooper | 1974 | 84 minutes | Horror | English
50 years ago, five youths on a weekend getaway in the Texas countryside fell prey to a butcher in a mask made of human skin and his cannibalistic family, and horror cinema would never be the same. Violent, confrontational, and shockingly realistic, director Tobe Hooper’s THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE terrified audiences in a way never thought possible when it was unleashed on a politically and socially tumultuous America in 1974. Facing a storm of controversy, censorship, and outcry throughout its troubled release, this masterpiece of horror has stood the test of time to become a landmark motion picture and cultural milestone.
