Biografie
Tobe Hooper (b. 1943, Austin, Texas) got his first taste of filmmaking as a child when he made amateur movies with his father's 8 mm camera. He further refined his skills at the University of Texas and through drama classes in Dallas. He debuted with the low-budget and now elusive Eggshells (1969), which he describes as a "hippie movie." But his real breakthrough came with his second film, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, which is considered a classic today. His next film, Eaten Alive (1976), about a disturbed hotel owner and his hungry pet, was made in the same vein. Hooper had another major hit with Poltergeist (1982), but we should not forget his comic Chainsaw sequel from 1986.
