Viewing Notes

Almost autobiographical. Basically a capsule of making low budget B-movies in the mid-70s w/Dante at the helm under Corman’s New World Pictures. Action, thriller, horror. Almost my ideal movie if not for the goofy soundtrack and general silliness. Love Woronov reprising her Calamity Jane character directed by Paul Bartel.
