Best known for The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, probably: but my two favorite Tobe Hooper movies are Lifeforce and Poltergeist. I should note that the latter absolutely scared the [expletive deleted] out of me when I saw it for the first time, which I believe was exactly what Mr. Hooper was trying to do with that movie. He also directed “Dancing With Myself,” in case you were wondering what tonight’s music video was.
Rest in peace, Tobe. My prayers and good wishes for his family and loved ones.
