Description

"The film which you are about to see is an account of the tragedy which befell a group of five youths..."

50th Anniversary screening! Violent, confrontational, and shockingly realistic, director Tobe Hooper’s horrific, doc-style film terrified audiences in a way never thought possible when it was unleashed on a politically and socially tumultuous America in 1974. It's the story of five friends who head out to rural Texas on a getaway. Along the way they stumble across what appears to be a deserted house, only to discover something sinister within. Something armed with a chainsaw.

Facing a storm of controversy, censorship, and outcry throughout its troubled release, this masterpiece of horror is the perfect movie to watch with a crowd during the spookiest month of the year!

The new 4k restoration of this landmark of outlaw filmmaking was authorized by director Tobe Hooper (and we presume, Leatherface) himself!
