Quote from: Xenomrph on Today at 02:56:49 AMQuote from: SiL on Yesterday at 09:52:51 PMI was going to say this, TCM was filmed for a PG rating (no, seriously). There's very little blood or on-screen violence, no sex or nudity, and no profanity.Quote from: ASH1977 on Yesterday at 09:33:33 PMMind you, Texas Chainsaw Massacre came out in 1974. It was pretty graphic for that time.It's actually not. There's almost no blood in the whole thing - it was more the tone that was extreme for the time.
Tobe Hooper just learned the hard way that showing less and implying things makes the movie 10x scarier and he earned himself an R-rating. see also: Jaws, where serendipitously the mechanical shark didn't work so Spielberg had to imply everything and it ended up making it more effective.
For that matter, see also: 'Alien', where Ridley Scott recognized that the Alien suit was a bit questionable if you saw it full on, so you don't get a good look at it until the end.
