It may be the most talked about movie you love or have never seen. In this episode, Justin and Lindsay discuss the uncomfortable summer horror classic, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974).

▶️ Director Tobe Hooper’s vision for the film will be discussed, behind the scenes tidbits, why it’s still as frightening as ever, and also the film’s importance in cinema and horror movie history. We’ll also hit on how the movie differs from, and also set the stage for, many films to come after it.

▶️ During our Pick of the Week section, we’ll revisit the ridiculous 90s teen comedy about love and cannibalism, My Boyfriend’s Back. Then, we’ll bring it back home for Hooper’s second dive into the south with The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2.

▶️ Rounding out Episode 7, we go to what 1974 meant for Billy Murray and Gilda Radner. But in his own words, this MurrayMoment leads us to the last time he saw Gilda before she passed away.

▶️ We’ve got a lot of ground to cover this episode! Love it or hate it, join us for this well-celebrated horror film that changed the genre forever!
