The sound of chainsaws revving on "haunted" Halloween trails has evoked untold screams since Tobe Hoopers 1974 The Texas Chainsaw Massacre hit the cinemas. Since that first takenoprisoners horror movie, Hoopers reputation as a master of horror has been secured by his adaptations of Stephen King (Salems Lot, 1978, and The Mangler, 1995), his blockbuster breakthrough Poltergeist (1982) and a variety of cult hits, from the underrated Lifeforce (1985) to the remake of Invaders from Mars (1986). This reference work is divided into five parts. Part I provides a history and overview of Tobe Hoopers career. Part II offers entries (with synopses, complete credits, critical reception and commentaries) on every feature film by year of release. Part III provides chronological information on Hoopers television movies and miniseries. Part IV offers entries on his episodes from horror television series. Part V is a critical essay and conclusion which places Hooper in horror film history and compares his work to alltime greats such as Romero, Craven and Carpenter.
