RIP Gunnar Hansen

.
The man who slid a mask of human flesh across his face and touched a nation's heart has passed -- Gunnar Hansen, the original Leatherface, died this weekend at the age of 68. If you're a fan and you've never read his recent book Chainsaw Confidential, which tells the backstory of the making of Tobe Hooper's flick, read it, it is essential. RIP Horror Legend, you'll haunt forever's nightmares.

Gunnar deserves a week of tribute posts. How about sharing a photo os your visit to the location in that scene?
