Paramount would have made a fortune if they had released Texas Chainsaw Massacre. A lot more then they would have lost on "First Nudie Musical". I'm sure many people thought your film was "vile". Everybody has the right to an opinion, but clearly Chainsaw made more money then "First Nudie Musical" and people like Stanley Kubrick, Ridley Scott and Steven Spielberg were HUGE fans of the original "Texas Chainsaw Massacre".haineshisway said:I didn't lose money and had Paramount released the film they most likely would have lost money. It was their decision - I merely offered my opinion and he happened to agree with it. As to artistic sense, that is in the eye of the beholder. I'm sure the film, if I bothered to watch it again, would seem tame by today's standards, just as Psycho, when shown to young people, seems tame - they have no idea what it was like to see that film in 1960. So, you may love the film for whatever reasons (did you see it when it was released?) and that is your OPINION. I was relating what I feel is an amusing story and the story contains my OPINION of the film - not yours, not anyone else's.
