Movie companies have always cooked their books especially when it comes to the points. We didn't make a profit here so no points for you!
I remember kevin smith having a rant on his weekly hollywood live show where miramax never paid him for the profit's on his movies. They all cost pennies and made mutli- million $$$'s. Eventually a threatened lawsuit resulted in cut cheques.
Yay for Reader Blinds!
Here is an old joke: The most creative people in Hollywood are the accountants. Probably true.
Charles Band. Known swindler.
Band being the owner of legendary D2V companies Empire and Full Moon. Caught lying about finding a cache of old VHS Clamshells that he sold as collectors items...when it was later discovered that they were mass market and newly produced, not old, lost stock. And that's the tip of the iceberg.
The greatest of all in dorect to video je screwed over is likely Roger Corman. The master of a specific genre being "small monster movies" (Ghoulies, Puppetmaster franchise, Gingerdead Man, Evil Bong, etc etc etc.)
Ghoulish gave me a good laugh. You can watch all kinds of nonsense in the Comet network.
Have a look at fairnessrocks.com
Quite the lawsuit that Spinal Tap thing...
Alternates for the "greatest of all in direct to video" if its not Corman, then it'd be either actor Jeffrey Combs or Band's former pet director, Stuart Gordon
When Art Buchwald sued Paramount for stealing the Coming to America script, Paramount claimed the movie didn't make any money despite $300m in box office.
