In honor of the great B-movie mogul's passing. It can be stuff he produced or directed. Here's his IMDB page: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000339/

For me (in no order):

Little Shop of Horrors (1960) d
Death Race 2000 (1975) p
X: The Man with the X-Ray Eyes (1963) d
Battle Beyond the Stars (1980) p
Caged Heat (1974) p
Dementia 13 (1963) p
The Big Bird Cage (1972) p
The Undead (1957) d
Barbarian Queen (1985) p
The Trip (1967) d

He also distributed some great movies, including art-house classics from Bergman, Fellini, early Cronenberg, "The Tin Drum"...

I think everything I would mention has already been mentioned, excluding maybe Jim Wynorski's sublime TRANSYLVANIA TWIST and HARD TO DIE, both of which are far superior to JW's NOT OF THIS EARTH remake, even w/o T. Lords' involvement.

Instead I will repeat an admission I made at some point in the past on this site - that I was a P.A. at Concorde/New Horizons for about 6 weeks in 1998. I saw Roger at least once, never met him in person, BUT... he DID prank call me once while I was manning the phones at the front desk. Add that to my meager claims to fame!

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
