ONE OF THE BIGGEST SHOCKS IN CINEMA HISTORY RETURNS… IN 4K UHD!
“IT’S THE MOST TERRIFYING MOVIE I’VE SEEN.”
WILLIAM FRIEDKIN
In the depths of Texas, residents make a macabre discovery: their cemetery has just been desecrated and the corpses displayed as trophies. Meanwhile, five friends cross the region in a van. On the way, they come across a hitchhiker and decide to take him on board. But when the young people realize that the individual is behaving disturbingly and threateningly, they end up getting rid of him. Soon to run out of gas, the group decides to visit an old abandoned building, belonging to the grandparents of two of them. Each in turn, the five friends will be attracted to the neighboring house. The encounter with its strange inhabitants will be fatal for them...
Nearly 50 years after its release, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre deserves its status as an absolute masterpiece of genre cinema. A film of all experiments and excesses, denouncing the traditional American family, “cannibal capitalism” and the repeated lies of the government in the face of the debacle of the Vietnam War, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre has always been considered the most terrifying work of all time. Cult film par excellence, banned in France for many years, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is available for the first time in France in 4K Ultra HD™ and presented in Dolby Vision™ (HDR10 compatible) and Dolby Atmos™!
