While
Steven Spielberg was producing a
Michael Bay film
Transformers 4, Michael Bay was producing a
Jonathan Liebesman 2014 film
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. And like with a Spielberg-produced film
The Poltergeist by
Tobe Hooper about which people started claiming that Spielberg himself directed the movie in question. With the 2014
TMNT people started claiming Michael Bay was the actual director on this film. It is absolutely and utterly poetic that both Tobe Hooper and Jonathan Liebesman also made movies in the
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise.

If today we have a lot of films to choose from when we want to shock ourselves beyond believe: from barely serious, yet distrusting films by
Eli Roth through intense hyper-violence by
Coralie Fargeat or depressing looks at the world by
Lars Von Trier all the way to deranged films like
The Serbian Film, in 1970s you had probably only one true contender for such a level of derangeness. And it was the
Tobe Hooper's 1974 film
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.

Why "Halloween" 1978 is a classic?

Compared to the contemporary slasher films ( with blood and guts displayed viscerally ) and even compared to
John Carpenter's other horror classic
The Thing, 1978's film
Halloween is rather un-scary in comparison. Yes, it is a slasher, where a lot of teenagers die. Yes it has a lot of disturbing ideas and a lot of rather good cinematic tension. But it is weak in the blood department. Which begs the question: What's so special about this movie?
