Funny story I read in a Dick Miller interview:

Roger Corman offered him the lead in Little Shoppe of Horrors, but he had just finished playing the lead in A Bucket of Blood, and he felt the roles were too similar, so he told Corman to "let Jon do it." Corman never offered him a lead role again, and indeed, he never played anything but supporting roles after that.

Well, I guess it's not that funny, for Miller...

How could you turn down a role in a Corman movie? :eek:

In 1960 Corman wasn't the legend he is today.

5-2-2, Dick Miller cruises to the win in the end.
