Falling a few credits short of finishing my film studies minor doesn't diminish my enthusiasm for the medium! My partner and I have a collection of over 4,000 b-movies and exploitation films. I also did my senior independent study on the representation of woman in exploitation cinema. I guess you could say I'm a certified grindhouse fanatic.

Outside of b-movie fare I adore the AMERICAN NEW WAVE films of the late 60s and 70s. I'm also a rabid fan of HORROR films, particularly the SLASHER genre- though that's just more b-movie fare, isn't it?

My favorite film of all time is Jaws (1975). I first saw it when I was nine years old and it hasn't left me since. I've seen it countless times and I'll never get tired of it.

♥ ♥ ♥ a few exploitation directors ♥ ♥ ♥

ROGER CORMAN (of course)

No one person could come close to matching Corman's mark on American cinema. Literally every hit film of the last 60 years can be traced back to him in some way.

My favorite film: A Bucket of Blood (1959) Watch it here!

Doris Wishman

As a sexploitation director Doris isn't always competent but she's always looking for a gimmick! She was is in it for the love filmmaking even if that film is a nudist picture or (in the case of her later work) down right grotesque.

My favorite film: Another Day, Another Man (1966) Watch it here!

Lucio Fulci

Giallos, my beloved where would I be without you? No matter where, no matter when, Fulci is setting out of this world gore and violence to a synth soundtrack and it hits every single time.

My favorite film: The New York Ripper (1982)

Hershcell Gorden Lewis

This mad lad- just as much as a buisness man as Corman but a worse filmmaker. Lewis shares the "Godfather of Gore" title with Fulci. This is the only guy willing to throw around buckets of red paint and cuts of meat to simulate gore in the 1960s. And for that I'm grateful.

My favorite film: Blood Feast (1963) - why complicate things?

do not mention him to me !!
