Fan Expo: Tobe Hooper Interview

Dave sits down with legendary director Tobe Hooper, who clears up his inspiration for Texas Chainsaw Massacre (hint: it’s NOT Ed Gein).

“It occured to me if I start one up, you know that the people would part like the waters… that’s the true story.”

Put that line in context, and you’ll get the point.

Beyond that, he also discusses his influences, why torture porn has seen such a rise in popularity, and has a tip for budding film makers.
