Tobe Hooper passed away Saturday night, at the age of 74. According to various sites, “circumstances surrounding his death are as of yet unrevealed.” May he rest in peace. He became famous as a director following the release of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974).

I did love several particularly creepy moments in Salem’s Lot (1979), and Lifeforce (1985) was completely insane.

They’ve been working almost non-stop (they took a break on Sunday afternoon) since Friday. They’ve hauled that thing away six times to the dump and back, and they’ve only made it into the living room. They get here at 7 AM every morning, and they don’t stop until 6 PM.
