Description

This edited volume examines the films of Roger Corman, an indie filmmaker known for producing and directing hundreds of B-movies, discovering industry stars, anticipating Hollywood's New Wave, and founding a profitable empire that included New World Pictures and Concorde/New Horizons.

An interdisciplinary roster of contributors adopt a variety of approaches – including those grounded in philosophy, literary studies, film studies, gender studies, and history, among others – to explore Corman's ouevre of entertaining, literate, and campy genre films. Both well-known and understudied films will be analyzed and arranged thematically between focuses on form, content, and cultural considerations.
