I apologize in advanced if this question if this was already asked. I did a search for it, but I didn't get any results. Anyway, here is my question-Where was Texas Chainsaw Massacre filmed?

Texas.

Thanks. I couldn't remember whether or not it was actually filmed on location.

Sorry to point this out, TMC?

I could just see you shaking your head as you typed this.

The original - Austin, Bastrop and Round Rock were apparently the shooting locations in Texas.

Well, I know it was shot somewhere in Texas. I just wanted to know where abouts in Texas it was made.

It could be possible that they didn't shoot it in Texas. Most of the New York scenes in F13 Part 8 weren't shot in New York. Most of the New Jersey scenes in Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back weren't shot in New Jersey.

Nah, it's definately Texas. Watch the 'making of' on the DVD or read the 'Texas Chainsaw Massace Companion'.

Damn, I wish I could find the DVD.

I'm sure it is. I was just saying that Baron's question isn't obvious.

Possible, but not likely.

Hooper was born in Texas, so I'm assuming he knew the creepy locales at which he'd film. New Line was only 5 years old when TCM was released through them, and having only a couple of John Waters movies to their credit, their budget obviously wasn't the biggest, neither was Hoopers, so traveling wasn't an option.

Anycrap, here are the filming locations for TCM.

I read that most of Friday 8 actually was filmed in Manhatten, the bay, etc. Post-production in Canada.

The F13 box set that was released not too long ago has short interviews with people involved in each movie.

The Friday 8 director said that they were only allowed one day on the strip (the boombox scene). The rest they had to do with other cities (forget which exactly) because "an alley in is an alley in New York". You're probably right about the bay.

They were close to Niagara Falls, they probably paddled their asses over there and saved some money.

That's "TCM", buddy.

I'm sure that was just a typo on Baron's (and hope on b-dan's) part.

Heck, Lord of the Rings was shot in New Zealand instead of filming on location in Middle Earth. You never know these days.

Oh yeah, b-dan... whack a [ on the start of your sig and it will work

Yeah, it was a typo. Curse my horrible typing while I'm half-asleep.

I'll let you off, you seem to be able to form a comprehensible sentence, unlike a large percentage of this board..
