The Horror Sanctum Podcast

We're finally doing it. We're chainsawing down the sliding doors of the sanctum and serving up a fresh plate of people barbecue with our friend, Emmy Award-Winning Special Make Up Effects Artist, Ben Rittenhouse, as we finally break down the seminal classic, the original from 1974, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Lots of wild takes on this one, especially from one Smiling Face Assassin. Ben Rittenhouse has worked for KNB effects with Greg Nicotero and has worked on 3 Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise films, himself, and has done work on a variety of projects such as the Kill Bill films, The Chronicles of Narnia, and Steven Spielberg's The Pacific, for which he won the Emmy Award.
