From the minds of Tobe Hooper and Kim Henkel, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre is not just an iconic film on screen, but iconic just in the fact of how it was made.

Episode 161: All the way back in 1969, Sir Michael Caine lit up the screen doing heists in awesome mini coopers. In 2003, director F. Gary Gray (Friday) took the helm of a proposed remake that would take what the original did, but bring it into the 21st century.
