Corman's World: Exploits of a Hollywood Rebel (2011)

Director: Alex Stapleton

Synopsis:
A documentary covering the career of movie producer Roger Corman and his lasting effect on the film industry.

My Take:
If you a fan of horror then the name Roger Corman probably comes to mind. He has made some of the best (and worst) exploitation films of the last fifty years.
This documentary is packed full of interviews from movie greats on both sides of the camera and from the legend himself as he explains how and why he makes cheap genre movies.

Rating: So Good
