The idea of the film began in the early 1970s. Toby Hopper, then a faculty member at the University of Texas at Austin and part-time documentary photographer, came up with the idea of a film with the themes of isolation, forest and darkness. He learned from the violence in San Antonio. The creative inspiration was obtained from the crime picture news, and a series of murders committed by the American serial killerwas also the source of the film's material. The film is deeply influenced by cultural and political changes. He hopes to adapt the intentional misleading of real events as a response to government lies such as the Watergate incident, the oil crisis, and the massacres and atrocities in the Vietnam War. The brainstorming news pictures made Hopper believe that talents are real demons, just wearing various masks, so he proposed the idea of letting the murderers in the film wear masks. He once worked in a crowded hardware store and got the inspiration to use a chain saw to break out of the crowd.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Almost all the opening works of the classic horror series are minimalist, extremely vertical, and extremely illogical. Like the most terrifying nightmare, I don’t remember what I dreamed about when I fall asleep, but I just want to get into others immediately. In my arms!

The second half is almost full of high energy. The almost uninterrupted sound of the chainsaw alone makes people nervous. I thought there was only one murderer, but I didn't expect that in addition to the masked man, there were also the two characters who appeared before. Participating in the killing party, which is quite a highlight, except for some actions and behaviors that seem particularly nonsensical and illogical, the whole film is pretty good.

Franklin: [referring to the hitchhiker] You don't think that guy tried to follow us, do you? Well, I mean there's no way that he could follow us. He's probably afraid Kirk will kill him.
