Kim Henkel

Kim Henkel (born Kim David Henkel on January 19, 1946) is an American screenwriter, director and producer.

Henkel co-wrote the original "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre" screenplay, and both wrote (and directed) a sequel, "". He also wrote and co-produced the Eagle Pennell classic "Last Night at the Alamo".

At present Henkel is a lecturer in screenwriting at Rice University. It was at Texas A&M University–Corpus Christi that Kim Henkel taught two students named Justin Meeks and Duane Graves who were working on a script for a horror film based around The Wild Man, a local Bigfoot-like legend that has been spotted around Sublime, Texas since the late 1800s. Henkel tutored the two young filmmakers and aided in turning the script into the film "The Wild Man of the Navidad" as a producer. The film debuted at the 2008 Tribeca Film Festival and rather than draw influences from classic horror films of the 70s, Meeks and Graves looked to re-create the B-movie, drive-in nostalgia of films like "The Legend of Boggy Creek" and "The Town That Dreaded Sundown."
