description: "Larry Buchanan, born Marcus Larry Seale Jr., was a film director, producer and writer, who proclaimed himself a \"schlockmeister\". Many of his extremely low-budget films have landed on \"worst movie\" lists or in the public domain, but all at least broke even and many made a profit. Most of his films were made for television and were never shown theatrically."
