Crab Monsters, Teenage Cavemen, and Candy Stripe Nurses is an outrageously rollicking account of the life and career of Roger Cormanone of the most prolific and successful independent producers, directors, and writers of all time, and selfproclaimed king of the B movie. As told by Corman himself and graduates of The Corman Film School, including Peter Bogdanovich, James Cameron, Francis Ford Coppola, Robert De Niro, and Martin Scorsese, this comprehensive oral history takes readers behind the scenes of more than six decades of American cinema, as nowlegendary directors and actors candidly unspool recollections of working with Corman, continually oneupping one another with tales of the years before their big breaks.Crab Monsters is supplemented with dozens of fullcolor reproductions of classic Corman movie posters; behindthescenes photographs and ephemera (many taken from Cormans personal archive); and critical essays on Cormans most daring filmsincluding The Intruder, Little Shop of Horrors, and The Big Doll House that make the case for Corman as an artist like no other.Praise for Crab Monsters, Teenage Cavemen, and Candy Stripe Nurses:This new coffee table book, brimming with outrageous stills from many of Cormans hundreds of films, looks at the wild career of the starmaker who was largely responsible for so much of the Hollywood we know today. New York PostVividly illustrated. PeopleAn enthusiastic ode to colorful, seatofyourpants filmmaking, this ones hard to beat.

Hollywood.comAuthor Nashawaty deftly describes how Cormans legacy is far more nuanced than most realize.American Way magazineOutrageously entertaining . . . Parade magazineEndlessly fascinating. PopMatters.comYoud think itd be impossible for any writer to put together a Roger Corman biography that's anywhere near as fun as his movies, but Entertainment Weekly writer/critic Chris Nashawaty has done just that.
