In 1974, writer, director and producer Tobe Hooper unleashed his dark vision on humanity - a story about five young friends whose innocent drive into the countryside turns into a nightmare on a summer afternoon. The film was labelled as perverse and glorified violence, banned in many countries and at the time only appreciated by the most courageous critics as the film that redefined horror. The Texas Blood Court divided, shocked and stunned audiences worldwide, set a benchmark in its genre, set a new course and made Leatherface a horror icon.

Tobe Hooper's Chainsaw Massacre remains a milestone of exploitation cinema and is still one of the most terrifying horror films of all time...
