At the LA Premiere of The Irishman. I thought the film was brilliant. Martin Scorsese did his first feature with me called Boxcar Bertha and Robert De Niro's first role was in Bloody Mama. It's nice to see them finally have a little success.

When people ask me to name my ideal guest on #TheLastDriveIn, what they usually mean is "Name your favorite person who's too famous to come on your show." I think there are two. Stephen King and Roger Corman. @Shudder @kinky_horror @FANGORIA @REBELLER

Dick Miller and I were friends for over 60 years. We made many movies together over many decades but I will always think of him as the beat artist Walter Paisley in A Bucket of Blood. Dick was able to take what was written and reach the deepest depths(1/2) hollywoodreporter.com/news/d…
