Sollte der es jemals nach Deutschland schaffen, ui die FSK...
Wage mal zu behaupten, ungeprüfte Österreich-VÖ, alles andere doch eher unwahrscheinlich.

Für Anthony Leone ist Hacksaw eine art Liebeserklärung an den Originalen TCM ;

Aus einem Interview ;

I saw that you gave thanks to filmmakers Tobe Hooper and Dennis Hopper in the credits of Hacksaw. What was it about their work that you admire and wanted to, in some ways, pay homage to?

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, in my opinion, is one of the greatest horror films ever made. When I was a kid, I was a fanatic of that film, including the sequel he did. I loved how raw and real the film felt, almost like a documentary. So I tried my best to bring that real, raw feeling to Hacksaw, like Hooper did with Chain Saw. Tried. Dennis Hopper is one of those rare gems I feel we’ll never get again. Easy Rider is one of those movies I can watch every single day and never get tired of it. So, I tried to pull that road trip feeling like Hopper did in Easy Rider. Giving the audience that road trip experience before shit hits the fan (laughs).

If you were granted the opportunity to program a Double Feature at your local Drive-In, what two movies make the bill?

Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Hacksaw (laughs). Texas Chain Saw because that’s a classic and my film because well, it’s new (laughs). I need people to see the film somehow. So that would be pretty cool if it was attached to that bill. Hacksaw definitely has a drive-in appeal to it—for that midnight viewing with the audience—especially during Halloween.
