I just love the dreadful sense of foreboding that this scene adds to the movie. That man was a real showstopper with this! And I love the fact that Skinny Puppy did some sampling from this scene for their album, Bites. :D
Things happen here about, they don't tell about. I see things. You see, they say that it's just an old man talking. You laugh at an old man, it's them that laughs and knows better
@Ninety9Soulz As a woman...I think I'd rather look like that..Chicks now tend to look like Snooki. You know when you get that makeup off you'd probably get someone just like her. Boobs and all. :)
@EmmyGurl523 You are right about that. I personally don't wear all that makeup, flat iron my hair, or do all that tanning, natural or spray tanning. I'd rather keep my hair curly and blond. Women, in general, look much better without all that stuff......
The essence of horror in under a minute...this scene is so menacing because the character of the drunk is so realistic.
I've met men like him down in the south and they are on the edge of sanity (which is also what makes the film so disturbing and the greatest horror film of all time--it's not that far away from the true life isolation of rural men and the deranged mentality that can foment).
The rare scene which is haunting in broad daylight. It's that sinister summertime atmosphere.
@RainyDayMerman Everything about this movie was realistic. The dirty grainy look, the acting was very realistic, even the part of picking up the hitchhiker. Today horror movies will never capture this esssence, one, because this society is so damn phony, anything of real essence is going to go over people's head, (you have exceptions (Rise of the Apes) but mostly it will go over people's head.)
@Bloodsport1 maybe not the ending so much, where he is running around with the chainsaw! that bit ruined it for me...the rest is pretty damn realistic tho
@Leatherbubba I think he is talking about the grave robberies that the family committ and mentions that while people think that it's just the gas station owner(older brother) he sees the hitchhiker and Leatherface in the graveyard as well.
I love this movie so much that every time it gets upgraded I buy it again, the blu-ray is incredible and ever since I was shocked by this film I have never been able to capture that same shock factor and I don't think I ever will, but do I really want to?
My grandma is dating the man who played the officer with the red button down shirt (Franklin). I shook hands with him. Very nice man, with an incredible singing voice. He was showing us old records when he used to sing.
is Leatherfaces dad there? well i'm not sure if it's his dad but the guy who runs the gas station. because i didn't see him in this scene and i am just wondering.
obiously is not ed gein life he had his own movie. ed gein inspires that kinds of films. do not think so mother fucker. long live to ed gein the biggest insane criminal
It's funny how on videos of the original, people who comment know it's just a movie, but on videos of the re-make, everyone thinks it's a true story. lol
the acting in this movie feels so "real"... as if they arent really acting. funny how a movie with such a low budget has actors that play that good. especially when you take in consideration that the actors didnt even knew what their salary would be... that would depend on how much the movie would earn...
I agree. The performances are very naturalistic and i am always confounded whenever i hear people bad mouth the acting in this film. I'm from Texas and i can tell you first hand that this is the way a lot of people there really act .
