Ep 128: The King of Cult / A Tribute To Roger Corman (with Raina Madison)

Our tribute to a true trailblazer in the world of independent film, the late great Roger Corman.

5 months ago

Roger Corman did it all and he did it in spades.

Whether you call him the King of Cult or the Pope of Pop Cinema, it's no exaggeration to say that Corman had an output unmatched by anyone in the industry. And while he is perhaps known as much for his schlock as his amazing Poe Cycle with Vincent Price, one thing is for sure. The man constantly did what he loved, and that was making movies!

For this tribute episode, we set sail with movie aficionado, Raina Madison, and dive right into the man's expansive catalog of films, presenting 12 in all. Seems like a lot, but considering Corman directed 56 films and produced almost 500, that's barely the tip of the iceberg!!

Later on we'll blast on through this week's OCTOPONDER THIS and hear all about Justin Cooper's latest ISSUES!
