    A great documentary about the making-of "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre"! It gets quite detailed and gritty, and gives a good idea how rugged the production was. Better than the "A Family Portrait" documentary. Recommended for TCM fans! (and I don't mean "Turner Classic Movies")_

    A documentary about the most notorious horror movie ever made: "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre". This documentary tells you everything worth knowing about the movie from inspiration and production to filming and release. "The Shocking Truth" even tells some history about the terribl...( read more)e sequels (that in my opinion you are better of not seeing). This is a must see for 'Chainsaw' fans and alone makes it worth to picking up the 'ultimate edition' two disc DVD of the movie.
