This sensational, extremely influential, 1974 low-budget horror movie directed by Tobe Hooper (Poltergeist, Lifeforce, Salem’s Lot), may be notorious for its title, but it’s also a damn fine piece of moviemaking. And it’s blood-curdling scary, too. Loosely based on the true crimes of Ed Gein (also a partial inspiration for Psycho), the original Jeffrey Dahmer, Texas Chainsaw Massacre follows a group of teenagers who pick up a hitchhiker and wind up in a backwoods horror chamber where they’re held captive, tortured, chopped up, and impaled on meat hooks by a demented cannibalistic family, including a character known as Leatherface who maniacally wields one helluva chainsaw. The movie’s powerful sense of dread is heightened by its grainy, semi-documentary style–but it also has a wicked sense of humour (and not that camp, self-referential variety that became so tiresome in subsequent horror films of the 70s, 80s and 90s). OK, in case you couldn’t tell, it’s “not for everyone”, but as a landmark in the development of the horror/slasher genre, it ranks with Psycho, Halloween, and A Nightmare on Elm Street. –Jim Emerson

More information :
Tap the top button on the right side of the timepiece and watch the screen come to life like a long chain of nucleotides bubbling up from The Primordial Soup. From here, it’s actually quite easy to figure out what the time is – Each red dot is one hour of time. Each yellow dot is five minutes of time. Finally, each green dot is one minutes worth of time data. Five red, seven yellow, three green? It’s 5:38 am!

Q. How do I set the time on this watch?
A. Press the lower button on the right side of the watch. This will cause the current setting to blink. Continue pressing the lower button until you arrive at the setting you want to change. Next, press the top button to change the information.

Q. What type of battery does this watch use?
A. This Japanese LED watch uses a single CR2016 watch battery which is pre-installed for you.

Q. How long does the battery last?
A. The battery should last longer than with a normal watch since time information is only displayed when you press the button.

• Japanese inspired red, yellow, and green LED watch
• Wearable art – don’t buy this watch if you just want to know the time!
• On the other hand, do buy this watch if you want exceptional coolness
• You mean this watch really tells the time? My lad, if all you want is a mere watch then yes of course The Genome tells the time, but to call this…piece of sculptural conceptual art… a watch… is like calling a samurai sword a butter knife!
• Elegant Dress Strap
