To me, and my late night, "B-grade & Below" movie tastes, Corman is King and is the most legendary Movie Man of all time. He gave us Dick Miller!

Phenomenal dude, phenomenal career. I don't know what else to say right now.

AP: Roger Corman, Hollywood Mentor and "King of the B's" dead at 98

I scored two projects for Roger. The first was his only television series, Black Scorpion. It was my first big project. The second was The Phantom Eye for AMC’s MonsterFest. Roger starred as Dr. Gorman. Roger was just as you see him in interviews, the demeanor, the voice. At once legendary and avuncular.

Godspeed Roger. And thank you for the opportunities.

best thing Corman did was let most of his films lapse into the public domain

which freed them up for additional creative purposes
