Jesús "Jess" Franco (born Jesús Franco Manera; 12 May 1930 – 2 April 2013) was a Spanish film director, writer, composer, cinematographer and actor.
Franco started out in 1954 (at age 24) as an assistant director in the Spanish film industry, performing many tasks including composing music for some of the films as well as co-writing a number of the screenplays. He assisted a number of well-known directors such as Joaquin Romero Marchent, Leon Klimovsky and Juan Antonio Bardem. After working on more than 20 films, he decided to get into directing films in 1959, making a few musicals and a crime drama called Red Lips.
In 1960, Franco took Marius Lesoeur, a producer friend, to a cinema to see the newly released Hammer horror film The Brides of Dracula and the two decided to get into the horror film business. His career took off in 1961 with his cult classic The Awful Dr. Orloff (aka Gritos en la noche), which received wide distribution in the United States and the UK. Franco wrote and directed Orloff, and even supplied some of the music for the film. In the mid-1960s, he went on to direct two other horror films, then proceeded to turn out a number of James Bond-like spy thrillers and softcore sex films based on the works of the Marquis de Sade (which remained one of his major influences throughout his career). Though he had some American box office success with Necronomicon (1967), 99 Women (1968) and two 1969 Christopher Lee films — The Bloody Judge and Count Dracula — he never achieved wide commercial success.

Jess Franco's first movie. This comedic road movie follows two girls on a trip across Spain. They are hoping for excitement but mainly find tedium and car troubles. So they begin to imagine picturesque adventures for each other. This is a great quality print in Spanish with English subs.

Informative documentary about 'Eugenie' (1969) aka 'De Sade 70', one of the most notorious Jess Franco films. Jesús "Jess" Franco (born Jesús Franco Manera; 12 May 1930 – 2 April 2013) was a Spanish film director, writer, composer, cinematographer and actor. He was only six years old when he started composing music under the protection of his brother Enrique. After the Spanish Civil War he was able to continue his studies at the Real Conservatorio de Madrid, where he finished piano and harmony.

"A lengthy sit-down video interview with Jess Franco and Lina Romay (the cutest couple in showbiz) that rambles over Franco's entire career (pre-1991) as well as following many conversational tangents. Lengthy discussions of the film business, and Franco's directorial approach and craft. Franco reveals himself to be a man of real taste, vastly preferring Beatty's Dick Tracy to Burton's Batman, and offers some intriguing opinions – for instance, he wishes that his early B & W films would be colourized, because he only made them in B & W to save money."

Sir Christopher Lee mentions here why "Count Dracula", by Jess Franco, was his favorite Dracula performance ("better than the Hammer films"). I'm sorry but I don't know the source of the interview. I've had the audio on my computer since 2002 and had to download special software to open it and make this video.
