Roger Corman, the legendary independent Hollywood producer and director whose long string of profitable low-budget movies such as 'Attack of the Crab Monsters,' 'The Little Shop of Horrors' and 'The Wild Angels' earned him a reputation as the 'King of the B's,' has died.
As a filmmaker, Corman's trademark was working fast and cheap. His early films were all made for less than $100,000 and shot in under two weeks. As producer of 'The Fast and the Furious,' Corman talked established actor John Ireland into playing the lead for far below his regular price by letting him co-direct the film, a nine-day shoot with a $50,000 budget.
