"Film director Roger Corman, the original King of the Exploitation Film, has filled his movies with images of blood-sucking vampires, rampaging biker gangs, vigilante strippers, and abducting aliens. A coldly efficient businessman, Corman has produced well over four hundred films on shoestring budgets, all on his own creative terms, and has seen nearly every one of his projects make money.".
"In the process, Corman has become the role model for today's independent filmmaker, laying the groundwork for the success of directors like Quentin Tarantino, John Sayles, James Cameron, Dennis Hopper, Martin Scorsese, Jack Nicholson, Francis Ford Coppola, Ron Howard, Peter Fonda, Joe Dante, and Jonathan Demme to name but a few.".
"Author Beverly Gray, Roger Corman's story editor and development executive for nearly a decade, takes you behind the cameras and into the heart of Cormanville for a first-hand, insider's look at the man and the mogul. From his modest beginnings in Detroit to his present day influence in Hollywood, Gray traces the career of her former boss.
Her extensive interviews with eighty of Corman's friends and associates provide a compelling private and public perspective on this soft-spoken giant of the cinema."--BOOK JACKET.
