They call him the Pope of Pop Cinema. At the venerable age of 90, Roger Corman has a truly staggering number of films under his belt, having amassed 55 directorial credits and produced somewhere in the vicinity of 385 pictures in the course of his 62 year career. He’s the king of the cult classics: we have the Vincent Price/Edgar Allen Poe cycle because of him, not to mention Rock ‘n’ Roll High School, Piranha, It Conquered the World, Machine Gun Kelly, Little Shop of Horrors, and Death Race 2000.

The wind roars; the rain pelts; the skies are angry.
