Low-Budget Horror Film Veteran Larry Cohen to speak.
The flamboyant American filmmaker is best known for his inventive low-budget horror films, the provocative social commentary of his work, such as IT’S ALIVE and GOD TOLD ME TO, and his prolific work in television conceiving THE INVADERS and developing THE DEFENDERS and ARREST AND TRIAL.
A major player in the Blaxploitation film movement of the 1970s, Cohen is also a well-known screenwriter, penning a number of major Hollywood films including PHONE BOOTH and CELLULAR.
‘Larry has individuality in spades and a life time of stories to support his long term survival in the business. We are thrilled he will be sharing these with us at Fringe in 2012’ Deb McBride, SPAA Fringe Director.
Larry Cohen joins Kylie Du Fresne, producer of THE SAPPHIRES, in the keynote line up for Fringe.
