Celluloid Wars – The Hidden Costs of Low Budget Filmmaking [Schlockmania]

This film was the biggest gamble that Roger Corman took during his New World Pictures era, costing a whopping four million dollars at a time when he usually spent less than a million on each film. It could have tanked his successful indie production/distribution company but he came out on top with a hit that gave the majors a run for the box office money.
