Day 8 part 2 : The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is a Slasher Horror film produced by Tony Hopper. The story consists of Sally and her friends on a trip which seems joyful at first, but soon becomes a nightmare when they venture into a house in the middle of no where.  The Texas Chainsaw Massacre has been dubbed a pioneer of slasher, which is why it's extremely influential to the Horror genre. Below I created a diagram of important key facts using gliffy.com.


 
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre highlights a time of worry and struggle. Due to reality being difficult people would often escape by watching movies, which could be a reason why Horror movies are so successful. Horror movies open a darker reality in which no one who follows societies moral code have explored.  In my horror trailer I would like to evoke a reaction from my audience, by making them perceive society differently just like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre did in terms of not knowing who you can trust in society.
