SMC Pod #177: Roger Corman's Rules 2: The Spawning!
The one and only Edwin Cesar Gomez of @physicalmediasociety returns to the Secret Movie Club podcast fold to discuss American cinema producing legend Roger Corman. When SMC did its first Corman tribute a few months back, Edwin said "Hey! I shoulda been on that pod!" And he was right. Very few folks have seen as many Corman pictures as the ECG. Today, Edwin and SMC founder.programmer Craig Hammill, discuss three more movies that give a fuller picture of how influential Corman was to late 20th century cinema: the 1967 Roger Corman directed LSD movie THE TRIP, the 1976 Roger Corman New World Pictures released HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD, and the 1979 Roger Corman produced SAINT JACK.
