Was The Original 1974 Texas Chainsaw Massacre Really Banned? The Truth About The Film, Explained

[هَـ-ђāŵĩ-ـَاوِي]

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre from 1974 is a standard of horror, and it was such a shocking and violent film that several countries banned it from being screened upon its initial release. Tobe Hooper's The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is the first and original film in the sprawling Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise and kicked off Tobe Hooper's career as a horror director. Though he may never have reached the heights of this early movie in his oeuvre, few horror directors can claim anything as influential as The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
