Roger Corman’s ‘sick sick sick!’ horror comedy is still a delight, and Olive’s Signature edition accompanies it with some excellent Elijah Drenner extras, including a video interview with the beloved star Dick Miller. Walter Paisley is the patron saint of underachieving artists everywhere, and this special edition has director Corman and writer Charles B. Griffith on tap to sing his praises. It is by will alone that I set my mind in motion: “Be a nose!”

Roger Corman’s crew of associates must have had some pretty wild times in the 1950’s, scraping around Hollywood and Venice Beach trying to bust into the film business. Perhaps these semi-bohemians stimulated writer Charles Griffith’s cynical humor gland, for the first modern black comedy feature in a horror vein became an amazing low budget ‘sick’ accomplishment for the uniquely creative Corman.

Colleagues and friends from the agency and network days believe that I was ahead of the game when I put together "Tour of Duty," the 1987 CBS one hour about our heroes in Vietnam. But, actually, when I first got to town in the mid-'70's I sold and developed a TV movie about an Mia soldier that was astonishingly prophetic and wildly successful at a time when no one was supposedly watching NBC. A writer team, John Herman Shaner (the dentist in "Little Shop of Horrors") and Al Ramrus, heard that I had an interest in original...
