So
this past weekend we lost the actor, Gunnar Hansen. He portrayed
“Leatherface ‘Bubba’ Sawyer” in the 1974 horror classic, The Texas
Chainsaw Massacre. His performance alone scared the shit out of me and
millions of people in the 70s and on through the 80’s. I remember seeing
the movie the first time at the drive-in. Those times in the 70s, grown
ups didn’t care if a movie scared you or not. I think they wanted it to
scare you to toughen you up or to make fun of you for the rest of your
life. Well in any case, it scared the crap out of me. I was so scared of
Leatherface that my nightmares had nightmares.
Then
after seeing the movie more and more, I got immune to the “scary” parts
of it and enjoyed the horror it brought to me. As I got into middle
& high school, it became the “midnight” movie at the local theaters.
It even became the biggest date movie ever to us preteens. I remember
one of my first dates in middle school was taking her to see the movie
during a Saturday matinee. The whole theater was fully packed with
middle schooler's yelling, throwing popcorn and all that shit, but when
the lights turned off, it was time to get scared. I won’t go into
details about the date, but she was scared for some time and didn't talk
to me for a while. HA! My friends & I though would always see it
every school year. Now, the movie is pretty much on all the time. I
haven't seen it in a while, but I think it's time to bring back the
nightmares once again. This time, I'll enjoy it. Thanks a lot, Gunnar
Hansen for making 'Leatherface' one of the true faces in horror history.
R.I.P.
Thanks everybody for your time and support. Please keep sending those bands to me and spread the word to your friends new band, record label or even a promotional company. Our radio station is 24/7 and open format as well. Have a good weekend. Cheers! ~DJ Naked Rob, SFCA
