Biography |
| Bob Clark began making independent low-budget features as a writer/director with the transvestite comedy The She Man in 1967, and is fondly remembered for his horror films of the early '70s, made with writer/actor Alan Ormsby: Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things (signed as Benjamin Clark) and Deathdream(aka Dead Of Night; Night Walk). Clark also won admiration for his Sherlock Holmes film Murder By Decree, scripted by John Hopkins. He scored a hit in the early '80s with his low-brow sex comedy Porky's and its first sequel, but his comedy, drawn from Jean Shepherd's writings, A Christmas Story, was more highly praised. After helming several flop comedies (Rhinestone, Turk 182!, From The Hip, Loose Cannons), Clark returned to Shepherd with It Runs In The Family. ~ All Movie Guide | |
