Tobe Hooper Followed Up Texas Chain Saw Massacre With This Creature Feature
After Texas Chainsaw Massacre's success, Tobe Hooper released Eaten Alive which featured Robert Englund and faced controversy due to its content.
Tobe Hooper changed the horror game forever when he released The Texas Chainsaw Massacre in 1974. It was gritty and brutal, and while he is a legend in some smaller horror spaces, Hooper never got cemented into horror directing the same way Wes Craven or John Carpenter did. In fact, many people will only reference The Texas Chainsaw Massacre when talking about Hooper because it was such a game-changer for horror in the 1970s. Still, he deserves another look over for his bizarre and wildly scary stories.
