Editing Roger Corman (section)

=== Return to directing ===
Corman returned to directing once more with ''[[Frankenstein Unbound]]'' (1990). In 1990, Concorde sued MGM for $6 million.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Cieply |first1=M. |author2=Alan Citron |date=March 30, 1991 |title=Creditors file to put MGM-pathe into bankruptcy|work=Los Angeles Times |id={{ProQuest|1641869647}}}}</ref> Concorde's films included ''[[Overexposed (film)|Overexposed]]'' (1990), ''[[The Unborn (1991 film)|The Unborn]]'' (1991), and ''[[In the Heat of Passion]]'' (1992). They had a big hit with ''[[Carnosaur (film)|Carnosaur]]'' (1993), which led to several sequels. He financed ''[[Fire on the Amazon]]'' (1991, directed [[Luis Llosa]]) which had [[Sandra Bullock]] and [[Craig Sheffer]] in early roles.{{cn|date=May 2024}}

Corman had to deal with the decline of the drive-in market and studio competition through the 1990s, but Concorde-New Horizons still made 15–24 pictures a year.<ref>{{cite magazine|url=https://variety.com/1995/film/features/thrifty-corman-healthy-in-4th-decade-99130404/|magazine=Variety|title=Thrifty Corman healthy in 4th decade|date=July 10, 1995|access-date=December 13, 2017|archive-date=November 6, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181106140707/https://variety.com/1995/film/features/thrifty-corman-healthy-in-4th-decade-99130404/|url-status=live}}</ref> This included a never-released version of ''[[The Fantastic Four (unreleased film)|The Fantastic Four]]'', that Stan Lee claimed was made solely for the producer Bernd Eichinger and his production company [[Constantin Films]] to retain the film rights. [[Avi Arad]], one of Marvel's owners at the time, disputes this and contends that he bought out Corman & Eichinger in order to protect the image of the characters for future films. This version was supported by both Corman & Eichinger.<ref>Ito, p.
