AV Club Presents: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre House

Austin: The Texas Chain Saw... family restaurant?

So apparently the house they filmed the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre in is now a family diner.

Huh.

John Carpenter Interview in the AV Club

The AV Club just posted an interview with John Carpenter where he talks about the ups and downs of his career. It's a fascinating look at the way he views himself, but I can't help but feel sad for the guy. A lot of the things he's done only earned acclaim long after they were box office failures and that clearly wore him down. He's done with directing. Thanks for some of my favorite movies.
