My Tribute to Roger Corman: The King of B Movies - Monster Madness

Today I want to celebrate Roger Corman, one of those most
prolific filmmakers of all time. Few people have made as many films as Roger Corman and when you think low budget exploitation film,
he’s the king. So today we honor the king! Director of over 50 movies and producer of more than another 500, Roger Corman has contributed so much to the film industry and is someone I think more people in the mainstream should know about.

Roger Corman sadly passed away at age 98 on May 9. May his fabulous creations live on. ❤

Just like the Mel Brooks video, I for a second assumed the guy died. It's cool that James pays tribute to living legends he loves

[Djordje_Jovanovic]

RIP Roger Corman - The King of B movies (1926-2024).

Mr Corman is one of those figures that deserves more love for his contributions to cinema, culture & entertainment as a whole

[benwasserman]

Jeez James, you nearly gave me a heart attack. I thought Corman had died!

[KRhetor]

Farewell Roger, thank you for EVERYTHING.

[sithmaster]

I'm not that deep of a cinephile enough to have seen most of the dude's movies but his credits speak for themselves and his students as well. Dude deserves all the respect.

[Yungbeck]

I'm currently watching ALL of his movies, I'm on 1957 now. I love Corman!

[ericfelds]

Corman is 92, both of his sons are litigiously suing him, and he’s STILL MAKING FILMS. Complete legend.

[GuestZer]

Corman hates being called "The B Movie King", but I think he should wear that title with pride. People genuinely love his work!

[brianoconnell]

It never fails to surprise me that he started so many stars onto their careers, and special effects artists we take for granted today, such as James Cameron.

[ColdIronJosh]

I met the man several years ago at a film festival and had a chance to chat with him briefly. He's a lovely man and a joy to listen to. Off all the film people I've had a chance to meet over the years, he's probably my favorite.

[CommodoreFan]

No matter if you love, or hate Roger Corman's movies, there is no denying the mark he's left on decades of cinema. 👍

"We have a castle and Boris Karloff. Go."

This. This is genius.

[fernandomaron]

My biggest idol in cinema, i don't care what people think about his movies, he is the man, a true artist.

[THE_VictoryPictures]

I still get surprised whenever I see his name pop up in films. I watched Dementia 13 a few days ago for my Halloween marathon and it was a delight to see his name in there, even though I wasn’t that much of a fan of the film itself. Hail to the king… of B-horror!

[halfabeet]

This guy's produced almost as many films as James Rolfe, incredible!

[geoffreyblakeley]

Corman has probably trained more successful actors and directors then any film school ever could. He saw the potential in people and was willing to take chances.

[FillBar]

Ed Wood got Bela Lugosi, Corman got Karloff. This could have been an amazing crossover.
