Favorite scene in TCM?

Mine has got to be the part where the "Hitchhiker" starts cutting himself with the straight razor in those tennager's van. The way he keeps laughing and bleeding all over the place made ME laugh so hard, my stomach was sore for weeks.

where we first see leatherface and he smashes that guy in the head. Then he throws the body inside and slams that metal door and we get that low bass note in the soundtrack. Made the movie for me.

When leatherface opens the door and revvs up the saw.

"Bring it, boy, bring it!"

Drool...

I was clapping and cheering so hard in the theatre that my friend who was with me couldn't help but laugh.

*FADE OUT*

i just realized that some of the posts are talking about the original TCM and some are talking about the remake. mine is in reference to the original. the remakes okay, but it doesnt hold a candle to the original.

Couldn't have said it better. You forgot about the guy's body twitching though.:)

The 1974 version has so many great scenes... I could watch it over and over again.

Everything that has already been mentioned:
the hitchhiker sequence
the hook
the sledge, drag and door slam

The pre-credit sequence with the camera flashes and metallic/violin sounds.

Anything with Franklin, Ed Neal, Jim Siedow.

Walking in the house and seeing feathers and bones everywhere.

Leatherface looking out the window and crying.

The seizure in the freezer.

Marilyn Burns sees something (a torso?) in the smoker and realizes that it ain't over yet.

Marilyn Burns wakes up in the farmhouse and starts screaming, because she realizes that it still ain't over yet.

The chainsaw dance at the end.

I think I'm going to watch it again.
