Transcript

00:00I've had a lot of strange experiences after all these years in the film business, but

00:13I have to say that Fantastic Four ranks somewhere near the top.

00:17It's clobbering time.

00:20Like a phantom in this film.

00:24Strange.

00:25It was like a feeling that I've never experienced before.

00:29It's a piece of history.

00:30I never would have thought that it was 20 years later that I'd be sitting here talking

00:34about it.

00:35This thing just won't die.

00:37Expect trouble.

00:40I didn't know then, you know, all of the machinery that had been at work.

00:45It was the seedy, dark side of Hollywood.

00:51We really wanted people to see this.

00:53How many movies did Roger Corman make and never release?

00:56One.

00:57Wait a minute.

00:58Why?

00:59Are we going to let them take this movie away from us and not get anything out of it?

01:03We've got to show people that we made a movie.

01:06That's how you get another job.

01:07All this effort, time, and all the work that went into making that film, pointless, meaningless.

01:16This film was never really intended to be a film.

01:19I said, oh yeah?

01:21You watch.

01:22I think this documentary is, I think it's about time.

01:27Hopefully, it might be like the last piece of this whole puzzle.

01:31The great untold, never seen version.

01:33The original Fantastic Four.

01:34Finally, after 20 years, this story is going to be told.

01:38Unfortunately, this version of the Fantastic Four really was doomed.
