TIFS: Chainsaws Were Singing

26.04.2025
On April 26th, the Film Museum's international film club (TIFS) is gearing up for the Haapsalu Horror and Fantasy Film Festival by screening Sander Maran's action-horror-musical-comedy Chainsaws Were Singing.

Monty Python meets Texas Chainsaw Massacre meets... Les Misérables.

Chainsaws Were Singing is an absolutely bonkers action-horror-musical-comedy B-movie epic from Estonia. Shot guerilla style in 2013, this true love letter to crowd-pleasing exploitation cinema then spent a modest 10 years in postproduction and is finally out in 2024.


Chainsaws Were Singing is the debut feature film for director Sander Maran (born 1990, Estonia). After attending The Baltic Film and Media School, his previously acclaimed short films include Curiosity Kills (2012), Framed by a Kid (2012), Rubik's Cube Terror (2012) and Turbosledge! (2013). 


Due to some rude language and over-the-top comedic violence, it is probably not suitable for children under 2.  


The film will be screened with English subtitles.

With TIFS cinema tickets, attendees can gain FREE access to the exhibition "My Free Country" at the Estonian History Museum's Maarjamäe Castle, providing a deeper exploration of the themes depicted in the films.
