Cishe wonke umuntu ubonile okujwayelekile kukaTobe Hooper's 1974 I-Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Futhi noma bengakakwenzi, iningi lisazi izinto ezimbili nge-movie. Okokuqala ukuthi kufaka phakathi umbulali othile osangene nge-chainsaw egama linguLeatherface. Okwesibili ukuthi kusekelwe endabeni eyiqiniso ka-Ed Gein - kepha ngokukhululeka nje. Kulabo abafuna ukubukela ifilimu ngokunembe kakhudlwana lokho futhi kwenzeka kusukela ngo-1974, nginegama elilodwa kuwe: Kuphambene.

Ngenkathi ifilimu kaHooper ithatha indlela egxile kakhulu kumabhayisikobho e-monster kunamaqiniso, ifilimu kaJeff Gillen no-Alan Ormsby bathatha indlela evinjelwe kakhulu kuGein. Esikhundleni sokuba yisilo esikhulu, esigaxayo, umbulali wangena Okuphambukisiwe, kahle, umfana nje obukeka ejwayelekile, elula. Kule filimu, uRoberts Blossom udlala indawo ka-Ezra Cobb, umlimi onezinkinga ezibucayi zomama. Lapho nje umama wakhe esedlulile emhlabeni, u-Ezra ungena kancane kancane ekuhlanyeni, aze afike ekugebeni isidumbu sakhe asibuyisele ezweni lakubo.

Kepha lokho kumane nje kuyisiqalo sakho.

U-Ezra, nonina owayedemoniwe ngokobudlelwano bezocansi, uqala ukuzingela abesifazane bakuleli dolobha futhi abalethe ekhaya ukuze bahlanganyele nonina. Bahlanganyela naye etafuleni lesidlo; kuzoboniswa umcimbi ofanayo eminyakeni emibili kamuva kwifilimu kaHooper. U-Ezra ungowokuzalwa ngaphandle; kumuntu ovamile ngedolobha, ubhekwa ngesihawu. Uyindoda elula nje, mhlawumbe eyodwa engajwayelekile, kepha ayikho into engenabungozi kakhulu. Noma bacabanga kanjalo!

Ubuhle bale filimu yindlela abachaza ngayo u-Ezra Cobb. Isimo esingajwayelekile Kuphambene kusibeka, futhi uBlossom ucijisa umqondo womuntu odabukisayo, onesizungu endaweni ecijile. Ngandlela thile, uphuma engenacala. Udidekile, mhlawumbe unokwesaba okuncane, futhi akamukelwa ngokuphelele ngumhlaba wangaphandle. Ulawulwa ngunina ocindezelayo, noma esefile, futhi akakwazi ukwamukela ukudlula kwakhe. Ngenkathi uGunnar Hansen ezodlala i-monster mhlawumbe edabukisayo, kubonakala sengathi kunokuthile okungahambi kahle ngaphansi kwesikhumba sakhe esomile, esingeyona imvelo.

Kuphambene ihlukile ngokwesethulo sayo, into engakaze yenziwe kusukela lapho. Ngengoma equkethe kuphela isitho somngcwabo esesabekayo, intatheli yezindaba isihamba ngendaba ka-Ezra Cobb, isilandisa ngezigcawu zikaCobb ezigulayo nezidangele zokubulala nethemba elilahlekile. Ihlelwe ngemuva kwesithwathwa, esikude, ifilimu ibukeka iyodwa futhi ithatha amakhaza. Lokho, okuxubene nomuzwa wokuphazamiseka wamahlaya amnyama, kwenza i-movie ibe ngaphezu kokufanele ukubukwa kwakho.

Uma lokho kungenele ukukwenza ube nentshisekelo, kuzwakala kanjani ukubandakanyeka kukaTom Savini? Ngenkathi umsebenzi wakhe lapha uzophela uma uqhathaniswa nokuchayeka okukhulu kokuchithwa kwegazi azokwazi ukukuqonda kamuva emsebenzini wakhe, akuyona into emfushane ukubheka uhlobo lwakudala lwemiphumela yakhe yobuthakathi. Akuyona ifilimu ebabazekayo, kepha kunokulandelana okuningi kwe-macabre noma kunjalo. Umama kaCobb obolayo ubukeka enengeka ikakhulukazi kule filimu, kanti uSavini ubuchopho obungemuva kwakhe.

Ngakho… kwenzekeni? Kungani enze I-Texas Chain Saw Massacre iyisibekele ngokuphelele le filimu, lapho Kuphambene yaphuma ngawo lowo nyaka? Phakathi kokunye, isitayela se-faux-documentary esingajwayelekile ngokuqinisekile sizohlangana naso. Ifilimu ethule kakhulu futhi ebekiwe, enamahlaya agulayo afafazwe kuyo yonke indawo. Igama eligcwele le-movie ngokungangabazeki lathinta ukudweba komuntu ojwayelekile we-movie, ngesihloko esigcwele esibizwa Okuphambukisiwe: Ukuvuma kweNecrophile.

Lokhu akuyona impikiswano yokuthi iyiphi ifilimu engcono. Lokho kubukeka kuyiphuzu lezinkinga, njengoba zombili ziyamangalisa. Nganoma yisiphi isizathu, iqiniso elilula lihlala lokuthi omunye uthathe umhlaba owesabekayo ngesiphepho kanti omunye akazange awuthathe. Akunasizathu sokuqhathanisa ngempela omunye nomunye, ngaphandle kokuthi kungenzeka ngokuya ngezinto zomthombo. Futhi ngalokho, Kuphambene kunembile kakhulu. Ukuthi lokho kukwenza ifilimu engcono kukuwe.

Ifilimu ibizokhululwa isikhashana bese inyamalala cishe iminyaka eyishumi lapho abalandeli abathukayo abangaphansi komhlaba bezoqala ukubhala bakhulume nge-movie. Ngo-1994 i-movie yayizokhishwa ngevidiyo yasekhaya, kepha yayizokwenza ukubhoboka okuncane olwandle olukhulu, olunegazi oluyi-horror cinema. Le filimu encane ezimele ayisaziwa nanamuhla.

Lokhu kungazwakala kunempikiswano, kepha ngikholelwa ukuthi abaningi - hhayi bonke, kodwa inani elihle labo - "amagugu afihliwe" kulolu hlobo afihliwe ngesizathu; hhayi amagugu ngempela. Angikukholwa lokho Kuphambene isesilinganisweni esifanayo namafilimu awela esigabeni se- “gem false”. Kuyinto emangelengele, eyindida, kepha inentelezi amanye amafilimu asabekayo akwazile ukuyithatha. Funa le movie uyibuke ngobusuku obulandelayo benyanga.
