Like I said in another post; I don't like gory movies, seen or implied. But it looks like the ol' Reaper wasn't impressed with Jerry Lewis' jokes, and went after another horror icon, the man who made chain saws (two words, btw) a weapon of mass destruction, Tobe ("The Texas Chain Saw Massacre") Hooper.
Besides Leatherface, who was inspired by Christmas shopping at a hardware store, and RL serial killer Ed "The Wisconsin Cannibal" Gein (the inspiration of Robert Bloch/Alfred Hitchcock's "Psycho"), Hooper also [actually] directed Speilberg's "Poltergeist", which I did see, in my room, back when I had a large tv, with rabbit ear & tin foil antennae, on a fuzzy screen, and until a few years ago, was the scariest movie I've ever seen.
Look out, Death has a chain saw now.
Tobe Hooper: 1943-2017
Writer, Director, horror icon, inadvertent promoter of power tools.
