When he signed on to direct "Alien", Ridley Scott described his vision for the film as being "2001 meets Texas Chain Saw". I now see why Ridley thought Texas Chain Saw was a good influence.
The film was originally titled Leatherface. Gunnar Hansen mentioned thinking the film, and his shot at superstardom, were ruined when he saw the new title. Daniel Pearl also made mention of concern he had when Tobe Hooper mentioned to him they were changing the title to The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Hooper said that it's still better than the other title they were thinking of going with, Headcheese.

Yeah Headcheese is not a good title
Richard Cheese is doing pretty well.
It looks like he made a decent career out of acting for a bit, but superstardom eluded him anyway.
There's Grandpa!
good thing those white bellbottoms are so easy to spot in the dark, eh?
So this is where it turns into a comedy?
Oh, not yet? My bad.
