Will Dodson and Kristopher Woofter, co-editors of American Twilight: The Cinema of Tobe Hooper join me to talk about Texas, chainsaws, massacres and the career of TCM director Tobe Hooper. The far-reaching conversation touches on politics, film techniques, history and the disputed authorship of the Hooper directed/Steven Spielberg produced blockbuster Poltergeist.

The original TCM is streaming on Shudder here (https://www.shudder.com/movies/watch/the-texas-chain-saw-massacre/425866499d2b1164).
The Tobe Hooper-directed Peter, Paul & Mary Doc is here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDa2718k15o).
Hooper's early short film The Heisters is here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3qpHOwAb2I)
I believe that this (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmyaT8OSXh4) is the Hooper/Funhouse interview Kris mentioned.
Evidentally Hooper's name is pronounced "Toby" and I look like a total idiot in front of these two eminent horror movie scholars.
