Roger Corman...The King of B Movies...has died.

His legacy of movie making was but one aspect, but his nurturing of talent was his most enduring legacy.

RIP, RC. His influence was huge and will be studied by every future film maker.

An admirable career, to be sure. Always have to applaud those that find ways to make things happen with limited resources.

Rest in peace.

My brother in law worked for Roger’s Concorde productions decades ago, in college, and had a huge mounted Death Race 2000 movie poster in his room. I never met Roger, but his late brother, Gene, was a neighbor and a very pleasant guy.
