A sad day indeed. Today’s movie landscape would’ve looked fastly different had it not been for his contributions to (b-)cinema.
What’s your favourite Corman directed/produced movie?
I really dig his The Masque of the Red Death from 1964…
HORROR HAS A FACE
An European prince terrorizes the local peasantry while using his castle as a refuge against the “Red Death” plague that stalks the land.
I’m partial to Death Race 2000.
That’s a great movie! One of my favs, for sure!
Battle Beyond the Stars. George Peppard, Sybil Danning, John Saxon, Robert Vaughn - it had such a stacked cast and they made such a delightfully weird movie.
I love me some Corman sci-fi schlock!
The Fantastic Four! (executive produced)
I haven’t seen that one yet. I should change that! ;)
Space Raiders
I love the Dick Miller cameo in this!
Okay, let’s share a couple of YouTube clips about Roger…
Jack Nicholson gets emotional talking about Roger.
Ron Howard talks about working for Roger.
