Quoted from vid1900:

He directed classic movies like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Poltergeist.
He even did the Billy Idol "Dancing With Myself" video.
Tobe, may you rest in pieces.....

Let's not forget Lifeforce, the best naked space vampire movie ever.

RIP Tobe.

That story has been around for 35 years. True or not, it doesn't take away from his talent.

Going through my movie library, I was surprised how many Tobe Hooper films I own... Invaders From Mars, Lifeforce, TCM, TCM 2, Salem's Lot, Poltergeist, etc. Great catalog, and I'll definitely find one or two to watch this weekend.
