What do you think of the theory that the insanity being described in the opening radio broadcast of Texas Chainsaw, and potentially the murders themselves, were the result of astrological interference? I fucking love it since it makes this into a weirdly subtle cosmic horror
It happened because they took a shit
It’s about people with bloodlust that slaughtered animals being replaced by technology, having no socially acceptable outlet for their urge to slaughter
>>223989406I can see itI watched it the other day, and that scene where the hitch hiker takes their picture and starts demanding money then burns their picture with some stuff from his pouch to basically "capture their souls" is also what you'd expect to see in a classic fairy tale.
>>223989406>fan theory>I fucking love it>cosmic horror
>>223989534man fuck you
>>223989534>Stop discussing movies we only jerk off over capeshit box office figures here
>>223989534OP destroyed>>223989555This but without the irony
>>223989406Yeah but isn't it implied that the family has been killing people and making them into bbq for years? Besides TCM is inspired by Ed Gein, not Lovecraft
>>223989651idiot
>>223989825the astrological interference is the bad luck for the victims, not the sawyer family
>>223990330Oh I thought everyone was aware the astrology thing about 'Saturn being in retrograde' was foreshadowing, like I'm not into astrology but it obviously signals something bad will happen.
>>223990380you're on a board where the average age ranges from below 18 to around 25. kids have no clue about that astrology shit.
I love the implied occult elements. So many things the Hitchhiker does feel ritualistic, like folk religion shit.
