Charles Band's Full Moon Freakshow: Episode 08: Roger Corman

The world of strange cinema has lost one of its founding fathers, a Titan of independent film, the great Roger Corman. A restless innovator, maverick, artist, intellectual and the best damn counterculture ringmaster of all time. Roger passed on May 9th at the age of 98 and to do our part to honour our fallen friend, mentor and hero, Full Moon is giving you a double shot of Corman content for free - two fascinating, frank and funny historical sit downs between Roger and his pal, Full Moon’s Charlie Band. Check them out now FREE on Full Moon Features and then go watch the many amazing movies Roger talks about making. Thanks for everything, Roger. We are eternally in your debt.

In this episode of Freakshow, Charlie welcomes a man who almost single handedly invented independent genre cinema, the legendary Roger Corman. Corman first made waves via his work in the 1950s and '60s with American International Pictures, and later, with his own companies New World Pictures, Concorde, New Concorde and New Horizons. He's made over 200 films and distributed hundreds more and along the way has discovered and nurtured such major talents as Francis Ford Coppola, Jack Nicholson, Dick Miller, Joe Dante, Martin Scorsese, Jonathan Demme, James Cameron and many, many more. He's a force of nature that refuses to stop making movies his way and we couldn't be more thrilled to have him on the Freakshow!
