I just want to know. Is he?

And did he helm Carnosaur?

I'd suggest checking the imdb at us.imdb.com if you want to know if someone like him is alive or dead.  Usually pretty accurate.  And he produced all three Carnosaur flicks.

Ah. Thanks for that. I was in a hurry, and couldn't check IMDb.

No, I had to go out with my dad to get something.
And by the way, its 3 in the afternoon in Australia right now.

If you were talking about last night, well, then that WOULD be correct.

I also assume that the Yes and No comment meant that he is alive and his career is dead.

Thanks for the help, guys. Just finished watching Collateral.

Don't you mean he produced all FOUR of the Carnosaur movies?  Sure, technically #4 is called Raptor, but all the attack footage is just stock from the other three movies.  It's Carnosaur's Greatest Hits Live On Ice.

Sort of, I Actually bought this Frankenstein's monster of a movie.  I thought I was in for a new bad dinosaur movie but I'd already seen all the best parts in Carnosaur 1-3.  Good thing it was only $5.

I am either:

A. Going to remake Carnosaur (closer to the novel), or
B. Make my own dino flick, Dinosaur Carnage.

What should I do? I might film it with Lego.

Roger Corman is alive and well counting his money! During the 80's he flooded the market with so many films that many of them never saw a Theatre Release and just ended up in the Video Market.

Many of his films were co-produced and directed by Cirio H. Santiago from the Philippines and I worked on most of them....
