Originally shot in 16mm, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974) follows five friends travelling through rural Texas, as they stumble across what appears to be a deserted house, only to discover something sinister within.
Falling victim to a family of cannibalistic psychopaths, the group soon find themselves picked off, one-by-one, by a masked madman with a chainsaw.
Widely-considered one of the greatest - and most controversial - horror films of all time, 1974's The Texas Chain Saw Massacre was refused a certificate by the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC), banned during the "Video Nasties" moral panic, and was not given a full uncut UK release for 25 years until 1999.
A masterclass in tension and fear, with its documentary-style camerawork delivering a disturbing reality and a cutting social commentary, from iconic horror director Tobe Hooper.
