Exclusive Portrait: In Appreciation of ‘Scream Queen’ Marilyn Burns
CHICAGO – She was the sole survivor of a horror movie classic, and was notable for her impressive screaming throughout the film. Marilyn Burns passed away this week at age 65, but she made her mark in director Tobe Hooper’s “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre” in 1974, earning the coveted title of Scream Queen.
The actress was known mostly for horror films, and also appeared in Hooper’s “Eaten Alive” in 1977. She appeared in two more Chainsaw movies later in her career, including “Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation” (1994) and “Texas Chainsaw 3D’ (2013).
