Roger Corman: The King of Cult Horror | Influential Horror Directors Series

In this episode of Terror Talk Podcast, we're diving deep into the wild, weird, and wonderfully low-budget world of Roger Corman, the godfather of indie horror and cult cinema. From gothic Edgar Allan Poe adaptations to biker gangs and blood-soaked exploitation flicks, Corman did it all—and on a shoestring budget.

We chat about Corman’s signature filmmaking style, his unapologetically fast shooting schedules, and the way he could turn a dime into dread. We explore his most iconic horror films, his love of dramatic lighting and moody monologues, and how he shaped the future of horror by mentoring legends like Francis Ford Coppola, Martin Scorsese, and James Cameron.

🔍 Plus: Corman Facts with Cath makes its triumphant return! Can Shannon guess them all? (Spoiler: probably not.)

Whether you’re a film buff, horror nerd, or just love a good practical effects story, this one’s for you.

If Roger Corman taught us anything, it’s this: you don’t need a million dollars to scare the hell out of people—just a fog machine, a good scream, and maybe Vincent Price.
