“The Texas Chain Saw Massacre,” directed and co-written by Tobe Hooper and released in 1974, set the standard for the slasher-film genre with its depiction of a family of sadistic cannibals who torture and murder a group of interlopers. In the film’s most horrifying scene, a woman is tormented at a dinner table, tied to the arms of a corpse as she’s threatened with imminent death by the ghoulish clan.

It wasn’t all acting. Behind the scenes, the making of the film was a real-life horror show.

“The Texas Chain Saw Massacre: The Film That Terrified A Rattled Nation,” by Joseph Lanza (Skyhorse Publishing), recalls how that scene, filmed in one 26-hour marathon, took place in a farmhouse in Round Rock, Texas, where the mercury had soared to 115 degrees.

Some of the actors hadn’t washed or changed their clothes in five weeks for continuity, and the set was littered with dead dog and cattle parts and fetid cheese for atmosphere, giving off an unbearably rank odor.

“The conditions on that long night that bled into the following day were intolerably putrid. Some of the cast and crew members referred to it as ‘the last supper,’ ” Lanza writes.

“The heat and humidity outside and inside were so high … [that the cast] had to run outside for oxygen and periodic vomit breaks.”

In some cases, there was actual violence. During the torturous dinner scene, Sally — the character subjected to this misery, played by Marilyn Burns — was supposed to have her finger cut by the maniac known as Leatherface (Gunnar Hansen) so the family’s centenarian patriarch, played by then-18-year-old John Dugan in heavy prosthetic makeup, could drink her blood.

The way this scene was filmed would be a career-ending scandal today.

“The prop knife they used, which contained a tube of fake blood that Hansen was to squeeze onto Burns’ finger, had malfunctioned,” Lanza writes.

“They tried many takes, and finally, Hansen grew so impatient that he surreptitiously sliced her finger for real before exposing her to Dugan’s saliva.”

Neither Dugan nor Burns realized what had happened, only learning about it years later at a postscreening Q&A. While Burns was reportedly “furious,” Dugan, Lanza writes, was less so, later saying, “I didn’t find out until years later I was actually sucking on her blood, which is kind of erotic really.”
