Texas Chainsaw Massacre

[Doughboy]

I saw texas chainsaw massacre, the new one that came out. People say true story some people say no its a myth. Well....i know alot of you are texans or maybe know of the truth. Hollywood goes a lil overboard on their versions of things but whats the real deal on this? Im curious as to what is the truth..

It's not a true story. It's based loosely on a crossdressing sick old man, as a boy his mother ruined him on woman, telling him how evil they were and such, but he saw his mother as a very powerful figure, combine that with sexual fustration, and you had your self a killer who dug up bodies, and did everything from make bodysuits out of skin, to save all kinds of body parts eyes, sexual organs, self made shrunken heads etc, and I cant rember he either danced around in womans clothing or womans skin, he was linked to a few murders but no one ever knew exactly how many. There was some other stuff like he was suspected of killing his brother early on... once caught he lived out his surviving days in a mental instituation where strange enough he had no problems and reportdly never had to be sedated or anything of the sought, heh he was happy there. I cant rember exactly maby it was based on another guy like this one too, but the story the actual movie played is false.

there was a guy in the 1950s from Wisconsin named Ed Gein. he was primarily and graverobber that dug cadavers and did sick stuff w/ them. he didn't use a chainsaw and didn't kill live people to my knowledge. basically, they got the personality of leatherface from a real person but the chainsaw, texas, and killing live people isn't accurate.

btw, there's was another lame-ass movie that was made to sound like a true story out of Texas called "the life of david gale". definately not true.

if they made a movie about it, its a true story. theres no such thing as fiction. THat was just something your parents made up.

is there really any need for a chainsaw in Texas anyway? i know you guys probably have trees planted in the city and stuff like that, but there arent any forests are there?

Yeah, i mean, why use a chainsaw when you can just use a laborous ax? So where you live, they only plant trees in the city? No one has any on their property? Just wondering.

Yea, he killed people, but only 4 or 5 that they know of. He killed a local store owner(that's how he finally got caught, they found her skinned and hanging like a deer in his kitchen), and several people passing through his town.
