Well, it was fine the first 25 years, but I'm basically 'off the hook'. I have a lot of other interests that are close to my heart and they keep me busy. But I do love to watch people's responses because they just love it, and we all get so many laughs about it. It's really a hoot and has brought a lot of unexpected joy to me and so many others. People actually whisper in crowded rooms, 'Did you know?? She's the girl on the hook from, 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre'?? The ORIGINAL!!' I just have to smile. After all, who would have thought that this little film would become a cult classic? I'm in the 'Museum of Modern Art' for goodness sake! Tobe and Kim have every reason to be proud of what was accomplished under more than challenging circumstances. We all do. I have a lot of fond memories about it.

Teri McMinn
Born in Houston, Texas. After graduating from high school, Teri studied and worked at The Dallas Theatre Center, in Dallas, Texas. Moving to Austin, Texas, in 1971, the young actress attended the University of Texas and St. Edwards University. It was in Austin, where she was discovered by director Tobe Hooper and producer Kim Henkel, after seeing an article about her in the local newspaper. After auditioning, Teri was chosen for the part by Hooper and Henkel, and offered her the role of "Pam" in their film project, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974). It was a hot, grueling shoot, fraught with all the wrinkles low budget films incur, twice shutting down filming entirely. Simultaneously, Teri worked in local theater. After the film's 1974 release, she studied acting in Los Angeles and New York. Doors opened as a leg and foot model in commercials and print work, while continuing stage work.
