The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

When five teenagers try to have the time of their lives road tripping across Texas, they come across a hitchhiker covered in blood. They pick up the girl who then blows her own head off. Now having a corpse in their car, they try to call the police from a gas station. While waiting, they discover a house in the middle of no where and begin to be systematically hunted down by the monsterous cannibal family that lives within. The one doing the killing is the psychotic Leather Face who's weapon of choice is a chainsaw. Bloody, Gory, Chilling. Based on the real life Ed Gein who wore women's skin as clothes.

Continuity mistake: When the girl shoots herself her body is still sitting upright in the backseat, but when the van hits a bump in the road and the body falls onto its side. When the van stops in the next shot the body is sitting back up again without anyone moving it.

Morgan: What are we gonna do?
Kemper: I don't know... uh... we gotta call the cops, I guess.
Morgan: Um, yeah, on a list of bad ideas, that one goes, way up there. Oh, police officers, please, as you inspect a crime scene, which is now our van, please, ignore the colorful pinata, filled with marijuana, in case you happen to come across it, because it played no part, you know, whatsoever in the demise of this unfortunate, young, woman.
