Enter the world of Beatniks and BoHos in this crazy Corman flick. Pathologically shy artist (#!@%*# Miller) finds his way to artistic fame by accidental means, and soon the freaks, druggies, self-absorbed poets and slumming socialites of the coffeehouse are all over him as the 'next' big thing? But how is he actually creating his ghoulish looking works?
Great fun, poking fun at the coffeehouse late 50s set while being truly campily original.
Where are John, Joe, Jake, Jim, jerk? Dead, dead, dead! They were not born, before they were born, they were not born. Where are Leonardo, Rembrandt, Ludwig? Alive! Alive! Alive! They were born!
