I'm from the 1970's and remember the "murderer houses clean up's". I'm sure there are still many "murder houses out there, even though the movies are not true they are very close to reality.

However, the Texas Chainsaw Massacre was doing it thirty years ago and fell under some serious criticism for its intensely violent nature and darkly realistic look at a family of serial killers. Future installments of the franchise turned the Texas Chainsaw Massacre into a horror comedy and self-parody, eventually ending with the god-awful “Texas Chainsaw Massacre: the Next Generation”. But you won’t find any of that here in the original.

When people think of Trilogy of Terror (assuming they even know what it is) they’re instantly going to remember the Zuni fetish doll, the film’s most marketable villain. Hell, they’ll probably remember that damn doll over Karen Black (House of 1000 Corpses, Airport), the star of the film. Yet, in reality, the Zuni fetish doll only factors into a third of the movie. The *best* third of the movie, but it still doesn’t encompass the entire film, which leads to numerous disappointments.
