Genre: Horror

Join Cinematic Void and Madrid Skateboards for a special 50th anniversary screening of Tobe Hooper’s The Texas Chainsaw Massacre!

The film that changed the horror genre forever is roaring back to life as we close out our Halloween Hangover Weekend with Tobe Hooper’s The Texas Chain Saw Massacre—restored, remastered, and just as merciless as ever.

What begins as an innocent summer road trip through rural Texas becomes a waking nightmare when a group of friends stumbles upon an isolated farmhouse—and the cannibalistic family that calls it home. Released in 1974, Hooper’s masterpiece shattered taboos and redefined the limits of on-screen terror. Filmed with documentary grit and a feverish sense of realism, it’s less of a movie and more of an unrelenting plunge into what feels like genuinely dangerous territory.

Half a century later, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre remains unmatched on a visceral level. Seeing it on the big screen with a packed crowd feels like the only proper way to say goodbye to Spooky Season this year.
