Films such as The Naked Witch, Zontar, The Thing From Venus and Mars Needs Women gained large cult followings, and movies like A Bullet For Pretty Boy, Free, White and 21 and Goodbye Norma Jean became box office hits. Still, no other independent filmmaker of the latter 20th century may elicit such a disparity of responses from general movie audiences and cult film buffs alike as the late, legendary Larry Buchanan. This study, the first serious examination of Buchanans body of work, addresses consistent themes such as the end of suburbia, the rebel outsider, the oppressive establishment, the curse of fame, and creatures of destruction. The highly political subtext found in virtually every one of the filmmakers projects is also explored. Chapters are devoted to more than 20 of Buchanans films; information on some of the unfinished, unreleased (and in at least one case), deliberately destroyed projects is offered, as well. Photographs illustrating nearly all the films are included.
