i agree about WIll Castle etc.
Take Roger Corman for example and Bucket of Blood.

Huge bugets are one of my pet peeves. It ruins the entire medium because it becomes less about telling an original story, and more about beating an old forumula to death until it's more battered and bloody than the corpses in the actual movie.
I saw Corman being interview at Cannes in 2002 and he truly is the God of independant horror. Folks like Tarantino and Lloyd Kaufman were practically falling over themselves in hero worship.
I bet you could make a killing selling those magnets on ebay!!
