It Conquered Hollywood! The Story of American International Pictures (Movie)

2001 / Director: John Watkin, Eamon Harrington / Avg Rating: 6.8 out of 10

A 60-minute salute to American International Pictures. Entertainment lawyer Samuel Z. Arkoff founded AIP (then called American Releasing Corporation) on a $3000 loan in 1954 with his partner, James H. Nicholson, a former West Coast exhibitor and distributor. The company made its mark by targeting teenagers with quickly produced films that exploited subjects mainstream films were reluctant to tackle.
