- Horror's Hallowed Grounds: Episode 2 - The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974). After the release of Halloween 25 Years of Terror on DVD the Horror's Hallowed Grounds segment got a lot of positive feedback from both the fans and from the critics in reviews of the DVD. So this inspired us to shoot another episode. However we didn't have a clue what we would do with it. The Horror Channel had gone belly up and we had all left to start up Dread Central.com. The HHG on-line article was also gaining popularity and even caught the eye of Nathan Hanneman editor and chief of the upstart horror magazine Horror Hound. Soon after Horror's Hallowed Grounds became a recurring article in Horror Hound Magazine, dating back to issue #4. Andrew Kasch, Buz Wallick and myself were set to attend a convention in Mesquite Texas on March 23-25, 2007. So we decided to try and film a Texas Chain Saw Massacre episode while we were there. The results of that attempt is what you see here. Again we were rushed and winging it. We had done sit down interviews with Gunner Hanson, Edwin Neal and Marilyn Burns at the convention with the intention of editing those interviews into the episode but when we got back home we realized due to some technical error the audio didn't record. It would have been great to just have those interviews but it may have been a blessing in disguise because dropping in talking head interviews at a noisy convention would have gone completely against our eventual "style". For years as new HHG episodes came out on various releases the TCM episode started to become a thing of folklore among hardcore HHG fans. Occasionally I would bring it to a convention and screen it to a room of a couple of hundred horror fans but the final product didn't have a home. Then in 2014 I caught wind of Dark Sky Films releasing a 40th Anniversary Blu-Ray edition of TCM. I reached out to them and fortunately they were familiar with HHG. I told them I had this finished episode and by today's standards it's pretty amateurish and slightly embarrassing but if they wanted to use it they could include it and I didn't want anything in return except a few copies of the Blu-Ray of course. This way it can finally get out to the masses. They said absolutely and the rest is history. SUBSCRIBE → bit.ly/2TAyK0B

This was awesome to watch! My wife and I visited Texas in October last year to celebrate our anniversary and we visited all of the locations in this video with the exception of where the house once stood. There's been a lot of changes to the gas station since this video. You can buy horror themed merchandise (which I did), there's a replica van in the back, you can actually spend the night (s) behind the station in these little cottages and the original film is also screened @ night in the back, as well!! We also visited the Old Crawford Mill and the gas station shooting locations from the TCSM '03 remake, as well. By the way, food at the restaurant/house was great!! You're the man, Sean!! Keep doin' your thing!
This was filmed at LEAST 15 years ago bro
@@Will4Jesus so why does it say 1 year ago wise ass?
Why would he film it 15 years ago and only just upload it a year ago 😂
@@w1ldcard743 You are wrong my Fiend. WB toys is right, if you look at Sean's description above, he states when it was filmed. It was filmed in March of 2007. lol. Calm down, you will end up being BBQ yourself.
Richard
@@Will4Jesus You are correct.....March of 2007. He needs to calm down....and read about the video above.
Richard from Nightmares, Tears, Anyone? channel. Stop by and Sub
If I had the funds I'd clear out the growth and build an exact replica of the house exactly how It looked in the movie
Sounds like a Go Fund Me or Kickstarter that I’d donate money too!!!!!!
I would build a replica of 1428 Elm Street (Genesee Ave)
You knew from the scrolling text homage intro this was going to be great.....
I just watched it again for the first time in years and I'm shocked Dark Sky Films agreed to put this out unedited. I'm glad they had the balls to do it though.
@@malfuncsean is that the steelbook ?
My all time favorite horror film I went to the drive inn when it came out .i watch it often thank you for taking me with you on these locations.
The ending part was awesome.
I hasn't heard of your show before but I am so stoked I found your channel! I watched a video part of the SXSW Collection on Amazon Prime that Shudder shared and that you were in.... After a few clicks, BOOM! HERE I AM! ❤️
Thank you!
I made a trip to Austin the other day and drove by Old Quick Hill Road. The road is still there, but was very overgrown at the time, so I didn’t bother to stop and get pics/video. If I’m still in the area later this season after some of the vegetation dies off, I might try again. The city is on the verge of enveloping that whole area, so sad that there are hardly any traces of it left. Great video, thank you for sharing
Excellent video .. love the time and energy you obviously put into planning and execution. Fantastic job !!
How refreshing. You ain't PC!
The detail on your vids is great
we went to quick hill 08/18/2023 new apartment complex where the house stood, but was still able to stand on the road. we grabbed a few pieces of the asphalt, got some cool pictures. super happy we were able to make the pilgrimage from Maine to see all the 74 locations
I haven’t been back to Quick Hill since I shot this episode which I think was about 18 years ago.
Sean I hope you can upload more of HHG. Love these episodes and can’t wait for more
Sean your opening is Absolutely FUCKING Amazing . Great video ✌🏻🤟🏻
LMAO i wonder how many got triggered by that voice over at the beginning
I had plans to attend this show in Mesquite,Texas in March of 2007.I had an accident a month earlier and couldn't make it.
Very cool place to check out with lots of cool merch!
Got me some tasty bbq and a shirt
Love ur videos dude keep them going especially horror film locations!!!
Hey Sean! Are you ever going to do HHG episodes on Tobe Hooper’s other horror classics like The Funhouse, Poltergeist, Salem’s Lot, and Eaten Alive (with cameo by Robert Englund)?
I'm dead lol when he took the camera at @ 19:31🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
Nicely done! Loved this one.
This came out on my birthday, nice bday present if you ask me. thanks dude
how does this guy only have 50k subscribers
Man I have been digging this channels content! Got back into my horror obsession after watching Halloween Kills in the theater. This channel is a rockin good time.
Thank you for your work and thank you for uploading
Thanks for watching! More good stuff to come.
@@malfuncsean awesome. Much love brotha. Thank you for replying
That box was my brothers when we were out there we buried it!! Lol thats so funny it was found. My brother's name is tommy and that was the first horror movie i made him watch so he did some graphic saw with his name and droped it in a little spot he dug and than stomped it in!! It was summer of 2007
Incidentally, Gunnar Hansen reprised his Leatherface chainsaw dance in the 1994 movie Mosquito, which also starred former Stooges guitarist Ron Asheton as a park ranger!🦟
Killer vid
TCM is definitely the scariest horror film of all time
It’s so weird watching your older videos not in HD!!
Awesome episode thanks
Cool horror history location video, thanks.
Super sick !! Love you video
That ending was classic.
I can't decide what was funnier. The ending to this video or the Halloween II video. 🤣🤣
That ending just blew my freakin mind.. xo love ya
I found you by accident and your funny as hell and very entertaining
Much appreciated.
How much did the new owners pay for that house? Must of cost a fortune to move.
So awesome man, I’ve got to check these sites out!
Incidentally, you say in the TCM video (that was filmed 3 years ago) that the iconic road in the film (where Leatherface does his little chainsaw dance) is probably going to be bulldozed into oblivion soon due to impending development, but do you know if that road is still there right now? Also, what camera do you use to film your HHGs videos and what editing software do you use to edit your HHGs videos?
That was filmed in 2006 so about 18 years ago.
18 years??? There’s probably condominiums built on that road by now. In addition to it being used in one of the ICONS of horror films, that road also looked spooky with the grass growing on top of the asphalt and would have been a great location for a spooky short film. Sad it’s gone.
I actually been to the gas station and I loved it. The fact that it was in the middle of nowhere to is what made it even cooler. I love the texas chainsaw massacre movies. Me, my mom, my dad went to the gas station and before we pulled up at the gas station I told my mom and I said " mom you know what I just now realized." And she says " what Hailey? " I said " you know what's the best place to have a murder happen." and she says " I have no idea." and I said " in the middle of nowhere because there is nothing around and nobody can hear you scream for help. " and she says ' that's creepy, why would you even say that? ' and I said ' well if you think about it, makes sense and if you look you are in the middle of nowhere ' 😂😂😂 I wouldn't mind going back there it was so cool to experience
I'll never forget meeting you in grandpa's room in 2003 I believe at the Bob burns tribute showing. But have you ever thought of correcting the name of the town that the graveyard is in? Its in Leander and you say "Leelander" and that has always bugged me 🤙🎸😂
Just drove by there after passing through austin
Great video!
Was just at some of the locations. Definitely recommend visiting the gas station \m/
Hey Sean, do you represent any of the surviving original TCM cast? If not, I’m sure you know who does and if so, please look into getting them out to the east coast.
@@mikeyhorror I do not.
@@malfuncsean Damn 😢 Appreciate the reply.
Awesome movie!!
TCM 1974 is the scariest of them all
GONCRATULATIONS. YOU HAVE DONE A GREAT JOB. I HAVE ONE QUESTION. THE SPOT YOU LIE DOWN ON OLD DRY LAKE BED STILL EXISTS.????
Dude, the most baggest of baggy pants ove ever seen
Thank you. That means a lot. 👊🏻
Have you thought about dawn of the dead 1978 enjoyed Texas chainsaw took me a while to watch the movie when I was a teen freak me out then,🤯
I did it. It’s on my channel.
I just have one question... the family that lived there while shooting, did they have nightmares?
Any friday the 13th movie locations coming?
I just bought the from camp crystal lake to Manhattan collection
Do you know the exact location where Franklin was killed in the wheel chair it's one of my favorite death scenes. And do you know if any of the cast members are still alive I know that gunnar sadly passed but do you know if the actors who played Kirk Sally Jerry Pam Franklin are still around I know that Bill mosley is still breathing. They should do a where are they now for the cast of Texas chainsaw massacre one day
I'm pretty sure the actors who played Kirk, Jerry, and Pam, are still alive. The hitchhiker and grandpa are still alive too. The woman who played Sally has passed away, and the guy who played Franklin passed away too. Gunnar Hansen of course, and Jim Siedow (the cook) have passed away as well.
Yes, I was asking for this. Never knew this actually got released.
I love the opening crawl. Once you said 'retarded", I went uh-oh. Then you address it in the very next paragraph. Hilarious! I only wish you'd said "bee-zaar" Laroquette-style.
And I always love the little reenactment of scenes you do.
It’s weird seeing the gas station before it became what it is today now lol
I enjoy the movie and it's very good movie
Hey you forgot to throw the camera at the end! JK 😂
Cool video
Hey bro u should do the new Texas chainsaw massacre filming locations !
When did this one get released I never saw it
Are you wearing jnco's?
I have a pair of old black JNCO jeans from the 90s. I don't know how or why I ever wore them, haha! The bottoms of the legs are all torn up.
The back room is full of dead bodies. Lol
Ha great idea for the ending 😂
The thing that I would never understand, is why some stupid idiot would ever move that house. Leatherface was known before Michael Myers and Jason Voorhees. I don’t understand the logic ? God Bess Gunnar Hanson , May he rest in peace RIP.
Movie is disturbing especially when you know it happened in real life. 🥴🥴🥴
🤳👍
This video was too long. Halfway through it, I got hungry so I left it playing and went to the kitchen to fix myself a sandwich. But then I found out that I'm out of mayonnaise so I went to a store. There, I saw the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in my whole life. But I'm a really shy person so I took up a three-year personality development course so I could introduce myself. She was very friendly and all, but unfortunately, she had a boyfriend. So I said, all good, I'm a mature person. I wanted the best for her and I harbored no illusion that I am the best person for her and she seemed happy with her boyfriend, so I didn't bother her anymore. But we kept in touch and we became friends and I got over my crush on her. Then she broke up with her boyfriend, we drank some alcohol because of it. I told her she'll be fine and I wished her well. I still think she's the most beautiful woman in the world, but like I said, I am over my crush on her. It was like five years already since I first saw her. Besides, I am quite happy with the friendship I developed with her. It was more important than a crush. So we kept hanging out, drinking, having coffee, and all. I had a girlfriend, she started dating other guys. My girlfriend wanted to live some other life without me in it, so I said, "Okay, I want the best for you and I want you to pursue your happiness." My lady friend and I drank alcohol about it, and she gave me the same advice I gave her when she was in that position and I became okay with the breakup immediately. But we were really drunk, so she spent the night in my apartment. I only have one bed, so you know what that means: She took the bed and I slept on the couch. But on the couch, I really can't sleep. Something was bothering me. So I tossed and turned for about three hours, then I finally couldn''t take it anymore, I stood up and went straight to my room where she's sleeping. I approached the bed, gently sat on it and I reached for her shoulder to pull her closer to me. She stirred and woke up. She asked what's up. I told her, "you know, the first time I saw you, I was watching a video and left it playing to get myself a sandwich then went to the store to get some mayo then I got so distracted by life that I forgot to finish the video." She said, "You know what, I've been wondering about a weird noise in your night drawer." So we opened that drawer, and lo and behold, there's my phone and this video still has two minutes of play time on it.
Great video but please stay away from the “R” word in the beginning. It’s not just about being “politically correct”, it’s just offensive to people.
@@GlowingGhostParanormal for the record this episode was filmed in 2006.
Sean clark is so yummy looking
Pretty bad into.. that's wrong.
