About this book
This classic guide to little-known films neglected by the film-criticism establishment features interviews with Herschell Gordon Lewis Russ Meyer Ray Dennis Steckler Ted V. Mikels Larry Cohen and others who dared to make independent feature films their way without bowing to a committee or focus group. This is an oblique how-to manual covering everything from financing distribution lighting camerawork and acting to publicity marketing and screenwriting. Would-be filmmakers as well as scholars will find much inspiration and enlightenment in this volume which has been used in college film classes. In-depth interviews focus on philosophy while anecdotes entertain as well as illuminate theory. Lists of recommended films an A-Z directory and quotations are also included.
