Questions???


Feel free to post questions about this movie.

My question is in the beginning of this film it said it was based on true events.

Whose events are the based off of?

it says "inspired by true events", which means absolutely nothing. The writer could have been inspired by watching his cat sleeping, then decided to write a really crappy/pointless movie. The inspiration & the subject matter don't have to have anything to do with each other for this statement to apply.

Thanks, that is what I wanted to know because everything that was seen was very...how can I say this...unrealistic. Who would do those horrible things?

It's a slasher flick. When was the last time one of those even tried to be remotely realistic?

Ugh...The Chainsaw Massacre based on true story. Although, all events weren't necessarily true.

It's based very, very, very loosely on the story of Belle Gunness.

Careful man, there's a beverage here!

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was purportedly based on Ed Gein. The only aspect of that movie that actually was true was Gein's tanning of human hides for his own sick purposes. He never used a chainsaw. There's no indication of cannibalism on his part. He killed two women, both with shotguns. He was a necrophile--something not touched in the TCM movies--and had an infatuation with older women stemming from his oedipal attachment to his mother. Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho actually was closer to what Gein did than TCM. It was also a much better and somewhat more realistic movie.

I found on another forum that it is supposed to be loosely based on the Bloody Benders of Kansas. I've read the stories and I can see how it is loosely based on it.

Thanks. Why do you say "loosely"?
