USA (1948 -). Director y productor norteamericano nacido el 5 de Agosto de 1941 en Nueva Orleans. Entered films via low-budget horror pictures, DEATHDREAM (1972) and CHILDREN SHOULDN'T PLAY WITH DEAD THINGS (1972), before branching out as a competent helmer of a wide variety of genres, mostly from his own original stories. His films include the atmospheric, imaginative period thriller, MURDER BY DECREE (1979) in which Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson solve the mystery of Jack the Ripper, the film version of the sentimental father-son stage drama, TRIBUTE (1980) and the semi-autobiographical, smarmy but high-grossing hit comedies, PORKY'S (1981) and PORKY'S II: THE NEXT DAY (1983).
