I think the deleted scene is simply showing you how much Buck is cared for by the people he chose to be in his life, and from someone who craved that care and attention for so long I just think that's neat that Buck has so many people now that do, and idk I'm just happy for him
thinking about "i don't want you to go, david," again and how he could have called her devi then but he didn't. and how calling her david didn't take away any weight from his words; if anything, it made it that much more meaningful. because david is special. i've touched on this before, of course, but like — it evolves from this, frankly, playground nickname into a term of endearment. and like, the one constant of david is that it's ben, and only ben, calling her that. no one else ever does!! it belongs to just the two of them, something no other person gets to touch. so when he says, "i don't want you to go, david," he's telling her more than just "i'll miss you." he's telling her "i am not going to be the same when you leave. there is a part of me that will board that plane with you. i don't want to lose that — i don't want to lose you."
Hi, im a beginner horror enjoyer and im really disturbed by a lot of gore but i wanna understand the Texas Chainsaw Massacre movies bc ive heard theyre hugely influential on the genre (rightly so too)
I figured with all this id ask the foremost texas chainsaw scholar i am aware of
Could you tell me the basics, if its gross (im really bad at tolerating gross out horror and gore played realistic), and any fun tidbits?
If not i thank you for reading and hope you have a good day ^-^
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre was hugely influential on the genre and set the standard for low budget horror and inspired future filmmakers to rely more on psychological terror over gore & violence! It was also seemingly the birth of a lot of horror tropes, like big, masked killers and using power tools for weapons.
Texas Chainsaw's story is inspired by serial killers like Ed Gein and Elmer Wayne Henley. The movie’s director, Tobe Hooper, was inspired by the graphic coverage of violence by San Antonio news outlets and based elements of the plot on murderer Ed Gein, who was a notorious serial killer who made furniture out of human body parts and created a mask made of human skin. The movie’s underlying themes are mostly the horrors of isolation, and the dangers of unchecked capitalism. The movie is also a metaphor for the Nixon-era mayhem and the government’s deceit toward the public during the 1970s. Hooper intentionally misled audiences by claiming that the movie was based on a true story to attract a wider audience.
I honestly don't know how to give you the basics aside from a plot synopsis because I would, hand to God, be sitting here for about 12 hours minimum going into every weird little detail, like the intricacies of bubba's mental issues and being forced to take on a female role for his abusive older brothers, or all the absolutely insane shit that happened during filming. And that'd just be me talking about the FIRST film.
But if you want to ask me more questions or see more Texas chainsaw related stuff you can ask/look over at my blog @chainsawhouse. I just hate to gum up my main blog with this particular interest.
Also, my fun tidbit is that they've recently confirmed that there is a new Texas Chainsaw Massacre in the works, under the title 'Texas Chainsaw Legacy'! Very fun imo.
Resumed my Trials & Tribulations playthrough and was like, you know what, maybe T&T really does deserve all the hype and really is the best in the og trilogy despite my favorite case being in JFA (and my second favorite case being in PWAA). After all, both 3-1 and 3-2 are both bangers.
Trying to tie Vandalize to anything in Sonic Frontiers’ story without making it weird or creepy or grimdark was giving me an aneurysm, but One Way Dream is giving me pure autistic joy for just being so absolutely correct for Sonic. It’s way up there with Endless Possibility and It Doesn’t Matter (SA2 vers.) IMO
