Sinopsis(1)
Cinco jóvenes de ciudad viajan por Texas en una vieja camioneta para visitar la que había sido la casa de un familiar, ahora abandonada. Lo que no saben es que sus vecinos son una familia de psicópatas caníbales y que aquella excursión de fin de semana se convertirá en una pesadilla de horror y muerte. Uno a uno irán cayendo presa de los sádicos componentes de aquel perverso clan, liderados por el terrible y deforme "cara de cuero" y su sierra mecánica. La Matanza de Texas es un viaje sin retorno al lado más oscuro y perverso de la psique humana, un macabro ejercicio de estilo con un increíble uso de la cámara que convierte al espectador en aterrado testigo de un holocausto sangriento.

Una reflexión pura, directa y sin tapujos sobre la violencia y el horror en su forma más naturalista. Sin una idea, pero también sin clichés incómodos o repugnancia barata. Y con una gradación única. Uno de los platos fuertes del género de terror.

¡Una maravilla! Cuarenta años después, la original La matanza de Texas no ha perdido nada de su atractivo y entretiene de principio a fin. Un espectáculo brutalmente directo, contundente y con un ritmo perfecto. Me sorprendió que acabara tan rápido.

It's strange, but much more of the tension and eerie atmosphere happen in the daytime. With the onset of night comes a psychotic sequence of scenes that jolt the brain and common sense rather than the nerves. The confused running through the forest accompanied by the roaring of the "chainsaw" may not be as strange, but the dinner scene at the family table is among the weirdest things one can witness in cinema. The editing of both the visuals and sound, along with detailed close-ups of the protagonist's eye, create an almost hallucinogenic impression. The resulting effect, presumably intended to disgust the viewer, is achieved fully. All in all, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre feels like two disjointed episodes that don't quite fit together, and the connection between them, represented by the shared title, seems somewhat forced. The feeling of mutual incoherence lingers in the mind and cannot be easily dismissed.

Despite the lack of bloody naturalistic details, it is an absolutely brutal piece that I don't recommend to weaker characters. The last quarter of an hour is probably the scariest passage I've seen in the horror genre. No macabre orgy, no flying limbs, but something much worse, a concentrated mixture of terror, dismay and a certain sense of disgust at seeing human perversion in its most horrible form. The last time I had a similarly intense experience was watching the famous violent scene in Boorman's Deliverance.

A very intense film full of violence and filth in the distinctive style of Tob Hooper. I was very surprised that when compared with the remake, this one is a completely different film, one that relies on the atmosphere generated by the violent behaviour of the cannibal family, but without being as graphic (the remake had blood and innards hanging everywhere), here the brutality is only hinted at. Since the viewer doesn’t see anything clearly, their fantasy can start working at full steam, which is a lot worse than when they show intestines and blood.
