Best And Worst Roger Corman Movies

[kornula]

For me, there are so many bad Coreman films to choose from, Galaxy of Terror does rank up (or down) there.

However, "The Intruder" with William Shatner is highly underrated.  Heck, not only does Coreman get praise for directing this gem, Shatner should have gotten at least a Best Actor nomination ..I'm not kidding.

No. Corman has produced over 300 movies and I've only seen a small percentage of them.

Rev are you sure about that? check out IMDB and you may see you've seen more films of his than you realize.

yes the guy has done a lot of bad movies i honestly dunno if the good outweighs the bad or vice versa cause he's done so many films ya know?

Best The Undead an oldie from (1957) i think this one is one of his best than you have his worst

(1975)'s Capone which is nice to see a young Stallone but the film is really forgettable to be honest

Well, after you see Deathsport 3000 you just might change  your mind in regards  to his worst movie...

This was corman's effort at working within the Hollywood box. He made it as a straight up mainstream movie. Later he decided he didn't like working in the Hollywood box.

top of my head it wasn't The undead it was St. Valentine's Day massacre that was his 1st experience with the big studio's the next time i think off the top of my head was (1990)'s Frankenstein Unboud and than the (2008) version of Death Race.

his movies were going to drive-in's and such until the 1980's actually before home video took over. i read his autbiography years ago i think it was and in it that's what he said, that book is really out of date now but it came out i want to say (1990) a damn good book too in case you haven't read it.


let's see another good one, (1962)'s Premature Burial did i say that one already? i can't remember and the bad

(1975)'s Crazy Mama which i have yet to watch all of it cause on how bad it is at least i thought so anyways

and i think he may have produced  (1979)'s The Warrior's but i could be wrong on that one

If I've seen 30 of his movies that's a lot of movies, but it's still less than 10% of his total output.

Nah- Roger had no connection to that film.

Oh- by the way- CRAZY MAMA was directed by Johnaton (SILENCE OF THE LAMBS) Demme!

[pennywise37]

i want to say i seen over 100 of his films maybe close to 130 or 150 i'll have to count them on IMDB to be sure but  i know it's over 100 of them, just like iv'e seen over 100 of Vincent Price's films i think and i think around that too of Christopher Lee's as well or over 100 of his too.

yeah Johnathon Demme started out with Corman and in my book i have it has him talk about it too.. he did that and (1976)'s Fighting Mad which is an okay film not a great film but it's decent anyways in the book he tells how he was dying to do that film but Corman said no not yet you have to do Crazy Mama first as we don't currently have anyone to direct it and he got p**sed and he stood up to Roger and said okay but if do it i want to do Fighting Mad next and Roger than agreed

in the book Corman even said how he had every right to be p**sed about it too.  i can respect a guy who admits that ya know?

of his later ones that i dunno how many of you saw of his made for video films i had to look these titles up cause i just could not remember the titles.

the best is and i really loved this one is though IDMB says (1999) i think my VHS of it says (1998) is one called Stray Bullet but it's got Robert Carradine in  it and Fred Dwyer and Rebecca Staab as well. there is a sequel to it and looking it up it's the name of it

the worst is Dangerous Curve from (2000) it's also known as Stray Bullet 2 and that's one got Robert Carradine as well as David Carradine too that one they pretty much remade the 1st film not a surprise there but the second one really really sucked ass.

IMDB gives the 1st film 4.9 and the one 4.5 for the 2nd film that sounds about right but i think the first one should get a higher rating than it has

and i never use Rotten Tomatoes i dunno why i just prefer IMDB iv'e just never cared for it cause they give too many movies i love a really low rating and ones i hate a high rating, yes IMDB does that too but most people it seems use Rotten Tomatoes rather than IMDB which is why it bothers me more i think

[Allhallowsday]

Yes, I like NOT OF THIS EARTH by far and away the best.  That might be the coolest crap ever made.

1957... the original; I don't think that remake has much to do with ROGER CORMAN.
