Jean Rollin
Jean Michel Rollin Roth Le Gentil (3 November 193815 December 2010) was a French film director, actor, and novelist best known for his work in the fantastique genre.Rollin's career, spanning over fifty years, featured early short films and his achievements with his first four vampire classics ''Le viol du vampire'' (1968), ''La vampire nue'' (1970), ''Le frisson des vampires'' (1970), and ''Requiem pour un vampire'' (1971). Rollin's subsequent notable works include ''La rose de fer'' (1973), ''Lèvres de sang'' (1975), ''Les raisins de la mort'' (1978), ''Fascination'' (1979), and ''La morte vivante'' (1982).
His films are noted for their exquisite, if mostly static, cinematography, off-kilter plot progression, poetic dialogue, playful surrealism and recurrent use of well-constructed female lead characters. Outlandish dénouements and abstruse visual symbols were trademarks. Belied by high production values and precise craftsmanship, his films were made with little money, often against deadlines. In the mid-1970s, lack of regular work led the director to direct mostly pornographic films under various pseudonyms, an activity he continued until the early 1980s. Provided by Wikipedia
