Even the sun can’t shine any bit of good from this sick mf Whether intentional or not from the director/cameramen it was a really great decision in the end
As a newfound fan of Texas Chainsaw, this is one of the greatest final frames to a scene in any movie ever made. Period. It's just a psychopath swingin' a chainsaw and yet it's so perfect. I don't really understand why, it just is. And maybe that's what makes it a classic scene, the fact that there is no reason to it and it has no purpose but it is just excellent in every way. Anybody else think so?
This is the most disturbing, nightmarish motion picture that I have ever seen in my life. It's not even a bloody/gory film. (Until the last 5-10 minutes). Aside from the half-dead, mummified Grandpa that comes to life after tasting blood, there's really nothing else in the film that suggests that "this couldn't happen". And yes, I do know that this is not a true story. But the back roads of S. Texas can be some scary places!!
+Travis Petersen Completely agree it is a disturbing film because it isn't so glossy looking like modern day horror films, and idea of a crazed family that preys on passerbyers is disturbing. The film just has a realistic quality to it, its documentary footage like without actually being a (tired) found footage film. I watched this every year come the Halloween season, a horror classic as far as I'm concerned.
+deraj nitram Very much a TRUE classic!! I know people who've never even known that the remake/s from 03' & 05' were "remakes" There's no comparison, by any means.
Miko S.O I live like half and hour from where Ed Gien lived. And my grandfather's friends dad was the sheriff of the county at the time. He said every cop began to puke when they walked in and saw the house
I don't know about you guys, but I have to agree with some of you here. This particular shot is just so...beautiful. It's creepy, and so odd, but its so beautiful. The sunlight adds to it, yet Leatherface moves and 'dances' with such grace that I can't help but feel peaceful. I sound weird, but you'd be surprised by what I would consider beautiful these days.
Always raises a smile and a laugh here. The bit where he's chased Sally around the side of the building and has to do a cartoonish physical "stutter" to not fall over always sends me into hysterics. Thank you, Gunnar Hansen!
@@SWEGTA Really late on this (also don't know if you found out within the last 4 years), but shooting this film was an absolute bastard of a time for everyone involved, particularly Leatherface's actor, Gunnar Hansen: since they shot the movie in Central Texas during the summer (any fellow Texans can attest that doing anything in Texas summer heat is asking for heatstroke and insanity), most of the sets had a huge amount of rot and odor, the dinner scene alone taking a full 24-27 hours and the meat had rotted under the lighting and summer heat and Edwin Neal/Hitchhiker outright considered it the worse thing he had done in his life (to point out how much it was hell for him, Neal had recently come back to the States after returning home from Vietnam and several years of combat). Additionally, the dinner scene's long shoot time led to the actors temporarily going insane and actually believing that they were really the characters they were playing as: Hansen outright said that when he was told to kill Sally, he legitimately thought he was going to kill Marilyn Burns (as another side note, when Sally's finger gets sliced open, that wasn't the blood tube squirting fake blood as intended, Hansen actually cut Burns's finger to get some blood for the shot). Additionally, Hansen had problems of his own during the shoot: the film crew had only one Leatherface outfit and since they didn't want to wash it, Hansen had to shoot in the same outfit in 100+ degree heat for weeks on end, leaving the suit absolutely smelling like death, getting to the point that he was effectively isolated by the end of filming due to how bad it smelt. During the scene where Franklin is killed and Leatherface chases Sally, it turned out that Marilyn Burns was a really slow runner (keep in mind, Hansen weighed close to 300 lbs and was 6'7" while also carrying a chainsaw with his costume) and Hansen would repeatedly catch up to Burns, leading to him having to improvise by cutting down tree branches and intentionally running slower than he normally did. During one shoot for this scene, he actually slipped on some wet grass, lost his grip on the chainsaw, and had the thing land blade-first inches from his head (another side note was that the blood and torn clothes on Sally was actually Burns getting cut up from the branches). So now we finally get to the last scene: for the bit with the chainsaw cutting through Leatherface's thigh, Hansen wore a protective plate on his leg for that bit. As it turns out, having an industrial-grade chainsaw running on a metal plate above your leg still hurts like hell, and the scream Leatherface lets out was actually Hansen screaming from the plate burning up as a result of the blade's friction (unrelated side note, but a similar thing occurred for Teri McMinn/Pam in the meathook scene: to simulate her getting impaled on a meathook, McMinn had nylon rope tied between her legs which would hold her onto the hook - said position of the rope coupled with her being hung on a meathook meant that McMinn dealt with a crapton of pain, so the screaming in that scene is McMinn genuinely screaming from the pain of the rope). So, after all of the madness of the film shoot, Tobe Hooper had it so Hansen would simply stamp his feet and walk away after losing Sally, but Hansen, being all sorts of pissed off from the film's brutal production, decided to get payback and scare the shit outta both Hooper and the film crew by randomly swinging the chainsaw around without telling Hooper beforehand. Said shot was kept in, but Hansen and the other actors were very much pissed off at Hooper, who himself admitted it took years before the crew could cool off and come around to talk with him.
RevJxX for real though you ever use it? i'd sat it's the second most powerful weapon in the game behind the holy moonlight sword, the moonlight sword is op as hell
aj withnoname Technically it is setting. Despite the storyline saying it’s rising they actually shot this scene during the evening when the sun was setting. Due to time constraints they could not wait another day to film this at sunrise.
The cut to black left me with a really unsettling feeling after my first watch, I was watching with a friend over discord and he'd fallen asleep so it was just me in silence feeling really uneasy.
Aint that a nice thing to do. Swing ya chainsaw into the sunset... At least you can do that. You can't swing a fu*king knife into the sunset in Haddonfield
this is the most elegant, beautiful scene from any horror movie i have seen, and really makes Leatherface seem gracefull and wonderfull..but then he impaled someone on a meathook...
This was the only TCM film Gunnar Hanson appeared in although he was offered the role of Leatherface in part 2 but turned it down because of disputes over money, imagine that huh.
I watched a documentary about this film and I dont remember if it was the guy that actually played leatherface or someone else on set but that swinging chainsaw scene wasnt supposed to happen. Leatherface was letting off steam from being tired of the long ass shoot. they loved it
The actor who played leatherface was pissed because shooting the entire film was brutal and it was just hell for him So he got tired of it and just snapped. So when they shot this ending he just went crazy and started swinging the chainsaw around with out even letting the producers know what he was gonna do.
I've met Gunnar Hansen. This was an outtake that was edited in to wrap the film up. Marilyn Burns, (R.I.P.), was sitting on the side of the road smoking a cigarette while Gunnar twirled around in this scene.
+aaron maxim ....Yeah. It was pretty cool. They both, (especially Gunnar Hansen), help/use to help small, Independent groups at Colleges & Universities across the country. Very good people, indeed.
This ending shot always creeps me out and I like how even the sun actually makes it creepy because it's making the character look dark.
It's a directors thought, they waited for the sunset specifically for that scene, artwork.
Sunrise.

Beautiful and terrifying

Always freaking wondered how is the cinematography in this scene so modern looking?
same, what makes it even weirder is that the movie's budget is like 100k dollars
Having actual artists do things has a magical effect
One of the most greatest, iconic, and memorable endings in horror cinema as of today it still gives me chills and goosebumps. 😍😎💯👍😰😱
The legend says that he's still making chainsaw movements !
This scene pretty much changed horror movies forever.
fuck, this is one of the best shots/endings of all time

The actor did it to piss off the director and the cameraman
Could you elaborate on that?
i can iamgine a TON of trys to film that part without breaking the cameras

It’s rising...it makes no sense continuity wise for it to be setting when they were literally in complete darkness not 10 minutes before this...

This Is such a great way to end the movie. It finishes with the sudden cut to black, ending as abruptly as it began.

BTW isnt a sunrise after a night of horror?
Best. Horror. Movie. Ending. Of. All. Time.
I'm gonna dance like this at the next wedding I go too
What a mood. Lol.
Did they add the sound to this later? I wouldn't dream of getting so close with a camera to someone who's waving a running chainsaw like that.
plot twist: the chainsaw accidentally cuts him up
Awesome choreography lol
Transcendent.
I was a Sawyer and I had a chainsaw. When I was alone, I did this XD
