For those who don't know this, Bob Burns
designed and built the props and effects=20
for The Chainsaw Massacre -- which made
his reputation in the movie industry.
Once I told Bob Burns that a Vermont=20
friend had told me that some homegrown=20
humorists had once taken the chains off=20
their saws, turned them on and ran up
and down the aisles of a Vermont movie
house to freak out the audience.
He said he had heard that that had happened.
