This movie scared the daylights out of me as a little kid. Despite the fact that the "sequels" and "remakes" were just plain forgettable garbage. The original one is still one of my favorite horror movies of all time :

Burns also appeared briefly in 2013's Texas Chainsaw 3D, both as a character called Verna and in footage from Hooper's original.

"Afterwards, I was just so grateful it was over," she revealed in a 2004interview. "I probably was the happiest girl alive.
"I ran through dark woods chased by someone holding a live chainsaw!" she continued. "Where was my head?
"Sure it was tough, but I enjoyed every minute of it. I wouldn't have traded the experience for love or money."
“It is proof of a base and low mind for one to wish to think with the masses or majority, merely because the majority is the majority. Truth does not change because it is, or is not, believed by a majority of the people.”
