00:00Texas Chainsaw Massacre
00:12My first viewing of Texas Chainsaw Massacre happened on my friend's ancient, early 80s VCR.
00:20The title sounds like you're chewing on flesh, Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
00:30Texas Chainsaw Massacre was always presented to me as a test.
00:35Are you hardcore enough?
00:36And that was part of the danger and excitement.
00:39The feeling that you were watching something that you weren't meant to see.
00:42I admire this movie so much.
00:45It's got a classic, primal horror movie feel to it.
00:49Every frame has something unnerving in it.
01:01Like even a long shot of the highway, then there's a dead armadillo.
01:04In some ways, I see a book like Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy and Texas Chainsaw Massacre as fraternal twins.
01:16The slaughterhouse, the bolt gun.
01:19I think of that moment in the van where the hitchhiker shows them the photographs of the meat.
01:25Very heavily reminiscent, I think, of a Francis Bacon.
01:29And there's Leatherface vibes there for me.
01:35Texas Chainsaw expands my notion of what art even is.
01:40There's one shot in Nosferatu that totally mirrors the shot in Texas when she gets up off the swing and walks into the house.
01:47She's literally walking into a slaughterhouse.
01:49She doesn't know that, but we do.
01:51In that moment when you play a girl in the house.
01:52I wish why the man killed a devil in the house.
01:54I wanted to go out of her, by the time you meet him.
01:55I wanted to go out of her.
01:56When was he в это?
01:57In that moment, I wouldель'r, by the time you came into the,
01:59I wish he were used to be a devil in the house.
02:04I'm so sorry.
02:10If he was a detective and he didn't understand it,
02:12I don't know why.
02:13He wasn't a detective guy.
02:15He wasn't sure that.
02:16He wasn't sure that.
02:17He wasn't sure the detective guy had.
02:18I would agree.
02:19That's what it is.
