Favorite BAD movie director.

[Alex]

Cormon was actually rated as one of the most influential men in Hollywood simply down to the number of big names he gave a start to in the business including Jack Nicholson and James Cameron.

And Bruce Dern, Dennis Hopper, Francis Ford Coppola, and Dick Miller!

I voted for Ed Wood, but there are several that I really like. Let's not forget Al Adamson (as I bow my head in respect), William Beaudine, W. Lee Wilder, Albert Pyun, Charles Band, Andy Sidaris . . .

Al Adamson was amazing!
I change my vote to Al Adamson.

I seen many Roger Corman movies.
I seen many Al Adamson movies. They get to the point pretty quick. Always lotsa action. And maybe Lon Chaney or John Carradine or Angelo Rositto hanging around.

Here's Al himself in a cameo in HORROR OF THE BLOOD MONSTERS (1969)!

Please! AL ADAMSON SUCKS!  He directed the terrible BLOOD OF DRACULA'S CASTLE (1967) with ALEXANDER D'ARCY as Dracula in a movie "starring" JOHN CARRADINE?!?!  Seriously?

But he also did the awesome SATAN'S SADISTS with Russ Tamblyn and DRACULA VS FRANKENSTEIN with Lon Chaney, Angelo Rositto and J. Carroll Naish!

Now that I'm half way sober- I'll go back to Roger Corman.
When I'm drunk-I like Al's movies. When I'm not so drunk, I like Roger Corman movies.

Write-in vote for Luigi Cozzi, his "Starcrash" was my introduction to the wild, wacky world of Euro B-movie schlock when I was a wee lad.

How come Andy Milligan is not on this list?

And Corman is for the most part, a pretty good director.  He knows how to get the exposition out without having it seem like exposition (except Battle Beyond the Stars) all his films he directed was able to keep the pacing and story flowing.  Granted, they are, for the most part cheap, drive-in type "thrillers"    But you should see "The Intruder"   Both William Shatner and Mr. Corman were robbed of an Oscar nomination.

And... watch Andy Milligan movies;  Seeds of Sin, Torture Dungeon, The Ghastly Ones, Guru - The Mad Monk, Monstrosity, Carnage (one could make a legal claim that Tim Burton "borrowed" the story and plot of this film for Betleguise)  Milligan's body of work is best described as a "shrine to hate"

Agreed, Corman's "The Intruder" is a faaaaaan-tastic movie. Anyone who thinks William Shatner can't act should check that one out.

As for Andy Milligan... I've only seen one of his films ("Carnage") and that was more than enough for me. Bleah.

Carnage is not his "best" film. Check out "Seeds of Sin" Its the second best Christmas family reunion film from hell.

nice pick. CONTAMINATION is a lot of fun too...

Sometimes (like always) a paycheck motivated many a talent into less than stellar productions.  SATAN'S SADISTS... z'alright... at best.  Everybody knows DRACULA VS. FRANKENSTEIN sucks ass.

Oddly enough in both abbot and Costello. Meet Frankenstein and in Dracula vs Frankenstein, Dracula seems. Obsessed with having control of the Frankenstein monster. I can't quite understand why Dracula sees any vital importance in mastering a creature that can be destroyed with a bucket of gasoline and a match.
