Description
"Stories about filmmaking date back to the 1890s and early 1900s, but there has never been anything quite like South Texas Blues! Just as The Texas Chain Saw Massacre amplified the horrors of Ed Gein's real-life crimes from the solitary acts of a loner into a backwoods cannibal clan, SOUTH TEXAS BLUES revs its source material up and over into obsessive nightmare territory."
- STEPHEN R. BISSETTE (D.C. Comics Swamp Thing, Taboo, Studio of Screams) "A dark subversive and appealingly expressionistic portrait of the obsessiveness that drives independent cinema creation as well as an affectionate valentine for TCM completists."
- CHRIS ALEXANDER (Fangoria Magazine, Delirium Magazine, director of "Queen Of Blood") The Incredible true story of the making of the most terrifying motion picture ever created...
South Texas Blues is based on the true story of director, Tobe Hooper (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Poltergeist)
In 1973, Hooper - a then thirty-year-old struggling filmmaker, far from Hollywood, entered a personal inferno while he constructed the most infamous motion picture of all time.
Embark on this cerebral journey through the minds-eye of a brilliant, madman director as he manifests The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.
From conception to pre-production and ultimately its creation, Christopher Garetano's South Texas Blues is a movie maker's apocalypse. Soon to be a major motion picture, the book contains the entire (revised) screenplay, storyboards and more; including a
foreword by Chris Alexander.
