Product Description

Best remembered for his 60s Vincent Price/Edgar Allan Poe films and other cult classics, Corman dabbed in anything for a quick buck. But his films were often highly innovative and exciting. Each is covered here in depth; a biography of Corman is included, along with bios of his stock players-all profusely illustrated.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappponting, June 4, 2002

By	John S. Drew "drewshi" (Brewster, NY United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Sadly, the author strings events in Corman's life in such a way that you are left not finding any interest in his life, which is sad as Corman has led such an interesting life. His own semi-autobiography was much more intersting and fun to read. The one good point of this book is the rundown of his movies, including intersting facts in the making of them as well as the listing of the major players in Corman's films. Not worth [the $]though.
