10/21/03: Poll: What's the best Ed Gein movie?

Posted By: AbietheFishMan


This movie was (VERY!) loosely based on the exploits of cannibal/arts and crafts hobbyist/serial killer Ed Gein.

Off the top of my head, movies based on ol' Ed include:

Psycho
Deranged
Ed Gein
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Psycho II, III etc.
Psycho- The Remake
Texas Chainsaw Massacre- The Remake
I think there were a bunch of TCM sequels as well.

Have I forgotten any?

I haven't seen any of the remakes or sequels, but IMHO the best of these by far is the little-known Deranged. Fine acting, great script and excellent camerawork, all for a budget that was comparable to that of the original TCM.

Agreements or arguments?
