Frank Henenlotter (born August 29, 1950 in New York City) is an American screenwriter, film director and film historian.
He is known primarily for his horror comedies, though he would prefer to be classified as an "exploitation" filmmaker (rather than horror).
"I never felt that I made ‘horror films’, he has said.
"I always felt that I made exploitation films.
Exploitation films have an attitude more than anything – an attitude that you don’t find with mainstream Hollywood productions.
They’re a little ruder, a little raunchier, they deal with material people don’t usually touch on, whether it’s sex or drugs or rock and roll."
