The horror cult classic, the Texas Chainsaw Massacre that left audiences perched on the edges of their chairs in 1994, is still talked about today because of the stunts. Suntwoman Jody Haselbarth says that the more daring and dangerous work was performed by the stunt team.
In describing herself, the petite stuntwoman says, "I am a natural athlete, I have a strong background in dance, bareback bronc riding, gymnastics and bull riding."
Haselbarth, who is a former member of the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling (GLOW), has been a member of the Houston Stuntmen's Association since moving from wrestling to stunts over thirty years ago.
Although she has not yet received a call to work on the Texas Chainsaw Massacre sequel, she agreed to share her experiences from the original one.

Joining her is longtime friend, and stuntman, Oscar Carles, who “got started just out of high school after learning some things from a friend..” The two recall a stunt at the one hundred year old Texas house that was a major player in the 1994 horror movie.
Haselbarth offers sage advice.
