25 Jan 1943 — 26 Aug 2017
Like George Romero (4 Feb 1940 — 16 July
2017), director Hooper was possibly plagued by the fact that his first general
release feature-film, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974), was such a stylistic
and influential masterpiece that there was no place for him to go but down. But
for all the bad or mediocre or decent movies he made thereafter, he still made one more masterpiece
than most directors, as well as a small number of early career horror movies of
note. May he rest in peace.
Go here for Part 1: 1964–1982
