From schlock to platinum and everything in between, he had one of the most varied Hollywood careers ever.

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

I'm one of the few people who actually liked Halloween III. Yes, the acting was terrible even by horror standards, but I think the anthology way could have had potential--and that scene with the kid and the pumpkin mask haunted me for years after seeing it as a child.

The Conans. Where else can you have Ahnuld, Grace Jones, Max von Sydow, Wilt Chamberlain, Olivia d'Abo, and James Earl Jones all credited?

De Laurentiis also gave David Lynch full creative control over BLUE VELVET, to make up for the catastrophic handling of DUNE.
