Edgar G. Ulmer

From Edgar G. Ulmer, considered the greatest "poverty row" director ever. His work is so good that many film critics classify his work as "auteur".

Check out "Bluebeard" (1944), "Strange Illusion" (1945), "The Strange Woman" (1946), and "The Man From Planet X" (1951).

My personal favorite is "Strange Illusion". This film is intensely surreal. I'd bet my last dollar that Luis Bunuel saw it and that it influenced him.

Edgar G. Ulmer rules!
