ART WE LIKE: Roger Corman

What can you say about Roger Corman? Whatever it is, it's stuff we like. He makes his own rules (like us), works outside the mainstream (like us), and discovered Jack Nicholson (like us...wait...um, no. That wasn't us. That was Roger Corman.).

Not only did he give us movies with titles like NAKED PARADISE, THE BEAST WITH A MILLION EYES, and THE SAGA OF THE VIKING WOMEN AND THEIR VOYAGE TO THE WATERS OF THE GREAT SEA SERPENT, but he also gave us A BUCKET OF BLOOD, about a lonely guy who kills people and covers them in clay because he wants to be liked by a bunch of beatniks. Whenever Dan gets sick, I load him down with DayQuil and Orange Juice, then plop him on the couch to watch A BUCKET OF BLOOD. It always makes him feel better...right before he passes out.



Vince out.
