News: What the Fear
Roger Corman Accepts Oscar
It's been a long time coming, but Roger Corman has finally received his Oscar. At the annual Governors Awards ceremony, honoring the Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award recipients, Corman was, fittingly, handed his trophy by former protege Jonathan Demme, who directed Corman in his cameo appearance in The Silence of the Lambs, for which Demme received an Oscar for directing. Hit the jump to watch a video of the ceremony.
The video can be watched here on Oscars.org.
It's worth noting that, at 83, Corman still hasn't gone legit, as last month saw the grand old B-King unveil his latest piece of exploitation -- the online web series Splatter. Check out our recent video interview with Corman below.
