Frank Henenlotter has introduced some of the wildest concepts in horror history. From the Basket Case franchise to 2008’s Bad Biology; there’s no denying that Henenlotter has left a lasting mark on the genre. With that in mind, everyone’s favorite horror streaming service has put together a special birthday tribute in his honor, and we have the first look at it right here. Check out the excellent video package courtesy of Shudder.com below:

Frank Henenlotter
Frank Henenlotter 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).

How cool is that?!? If you have somehow managed to miss this man’s works, or if you simply feel like revisiting them, Shudder has you covered. You can swing over right this second and watch Bad Biology, Basket Case, Frankenhooker, and many more. 

Shudder is currently offering a 14-day free trial, and is only $5 a month after that. This is a no-brainer, folks. Get your asses over there and show some birthday love to Mr. Frank Henenlotter.

Happy Birthday, buddy.
