Picking up right where the splatter-tastic original ended, Marybeth escapes the clutches of the deformed, swamp-dwelling iconic killer Victor Crowley. After learning the truth about her family’s connection to the hatchet-wielding madman, Marybeth returns to the Louisiana swamps along with an army of hunters to recover the bodies of her family and exact the bloodiest revenge against the bayou butcher.

Total Film Magazine have joined forces with FrightFest to introduce a new attraction to this year’s festival. It’s called ‘Total Icon’ and will celebrate the career of living legend Tobe Hooper. As well as showing Tobe’s ferocious 1974 masterpiece THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE on the big screen, we will be unveiling his rarely seen, restored and re-mastered 1969 debut, EGGSHELLS. And that’s not all: there will be a 45-minute onstage Q&A with the great man himself, here visiting the UK for the first time in 18 years.

10.45am EGGSHELLS (Total Icon Retrospective)

Director Tobe Hooper’s little seen and long thought lost debut feature is now a must-see hippy trippy head space fantasy time capsule containing many portents of THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE to come. Hooper: “It’s a real movie about 1969, kind of verite but with a little push, improvisation mixed with magic. It was about the beginning and end of the subculture. Most of it takes place in a commune house. But what they don’t know is that in the basement is a crypto-embryonic hyper-electric presence that managed to influence the house and the people in it. The presence has embedded itself in the walls and grows into this big bulb, half-electronic, half organic. Almost like an eye, but like a big light, it comes out of the wall, manipulating and animating. I’ve always described it as being a mixture of Andy Warhol’s TRASH and Walt Disney’s FANTASIA”.

1.00pm THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE (Total Icon Retrospective)

Time has not dimmed the shock value of the seminal classic from director Tobe Hooper, based on the same real-life Ed Gein case that inspired PSYCHO. Only granted a certificate from the British Board of Film Classification for its 25th Anniversary release in 1999, this highly influential scream-filled chiller tells the story of five Texas hippies who encounter a family of murderous cannibals. Hooper masterfully uses documentary-style realism, coupled with the horror of anticipation and suggestion, to take the terror factor into stunning and disturbing areas. Made on a micro-budget that adds to the harsh tone, this razor-sharp nightmare began the power tool cult and brought Gunnar Hansen’s Leatherface to horror icon glory. But it’s the brutal accumulative effect of Hooper’s mater-of-fact direction that freezes the scalp and puts alarmed imagination on overdrive.

9.00pm A SERBIAN FILM (UK Premiere)

The most controversial hot button movie of the year is an unflinching look into the moral, political and ethical abyss that is Serbia today. When a former porn star is lured out of retirement to make one last ‘artistic statement’ on the sexploitation industry little does he know the depths of depravity to which he will sink. For the director is concerned less about the pleasures of the flesh than the degradation of the human animal. Be warned, the depiction of one man’s descent into vice-ridden hell is brutal and violent to an extreme. Director Srdjan Spasojevic’s walk on the wildest side is meant to shock the viewer out of complacency and could only come from those living through collective national pain and victimization now determined to throw that hurt and fury on screen. The result is an experience you will never, ever forget.
