3. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: That€™s Marilyn Burns Real Blood In a Few Scenes

I€™ve previously written an article explaining why Marilyn Burns is such an underrated Scream Queen and this is one of the reasons. This lady must have been a real trooper. It€™s no secret that the making of the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre was a total nightmare. Many of the actors have said that it was the worst experience of their career. Marilyn may have had it the worst, during the dinner scene Leatherface actually cuts her finger because they couldn€™t get the fake blood to work properly. She experienced many real injuries during filming and the final scene where she is hysterical seemed so authentic partly because of everything she had been though. Any horror fan is happy she finished the film like a true soldier.
