Thanks for the heads up, this is on Netflix? Awesome, he's a guilty pleasure of mine too, I'll have to check it out!

Yeah, I caught it on netflix.

I'm astonished at how many of his movies I've watched and not realized it was him.

Everything from Chopping Mall to Hard to Die to Return of the Swamp Thing to Not of this Earth.

It's a shame that it really is an end of an era for those mid-tier low budget films.

Amazing how seriously Julie Strain and Julie K Smith take themselves and their "craft", in their "legitimate" film careers. It's an odd hierarchy when you think of how they feel about the flood of adult actresses coming into their domain of B-movies in recent years.

For some reason I picked up on his style in the 80s, he always does the same credits sequences. Lost Empire is probably my favourite of his stuff, it's fun and completely competent.
