The original 'Chainsaw', released in 1974 and directed by Tobe Hooper, is considered one of the most influential horror movies of all time.

It introduced the character of Leatherface, a member of a family of cannibals who is a hulking figure with a deformed face, hidden by the skin of his victims. The character has been a constant in the many sequels and prequels.
