The A-side picture would be your star vehicle, your high budget money maker. The B-movie was there to give fans something like what they were already keyed up to watch, for a lot less money. There was less pressure to make something stellar, but a lot more freedom to make something fun, after all it wasn’t like the movie cost much of anything to make.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eIn that system, certain directors became masters at delivering cheap thrills to audiences all across the world. Roger Corman and Ed Wood both carved out their own slices of fame producing low-budget monster movie thrills and chills. But there may be no truer artist of the B-picture than Samuel Fuller.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eFuller was a master at crafting roles for whatever talent he had on hand. Operating largely on noir and crime scripts, his films were unfailingly unique, and often ahead of their time sociopolitically.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eReleased in 1964, the Naked Kiss looks a lot more like a 90s indie darling than it does something produced on the tail end of the Old Hollywood system. The story of a former sex worker who moves to the suburbs, where she struggles to overcome her past while fighting against the depravity of the middle class. It’s a film that presages John Waters’ work in the 70s and 80s and one the director has often championed as a fundamental text.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38;
