Englewood, Colorado: Anchor Bay/Starz Entertainment, 2000.〕) is an American film producer, director, and screenwriter. He is best known as a B-Movie auteur of horror and science fiction films – often containing a police procedural element – during the 1970s and 1980s. He has since concentrated mainly on screenwriting including the Joel Schumacher thriller ''Phone Booth'' (2002), ''Cellular'' (2004) and ''Captivity'' (2007). In 2006 Cohen returned to the directing chair for Mick Garris' ''Masters of Horror'' TV series (2006); he directed the episode "Pick Me Up".〔Cohen, Larry, Filmography, Internet Movie Database, () April 4, 2011.〕
==Early life==
Cohen was born in Kingston, New York, USA.〔 His sister Ronni Chasen was a publicist who worked with him beginning early in his film career. He moved to the Riverdale section of the Bronx in New York City at an early age, and he later majored in film studies at the City College of New York. He exhibited a voracious appetite for films as a child, visiting the movie theaters at least twice a week and, most of them being double features, the young Cohen managed to consume at least four movies a week. He was a fan of the hardboiled and film noir movies that featured actors such as Humphrey Bogart and James Cagney; films that were penned by the likes of Raymond Chandler and Dashiell Hammett. Cohen was especially a fan of director Michael Curtiz, whose films include ''The Adventures of Robin Hood'', ''Casablanca'', and ''Dodge City''. His own career in film began during the 1950s when he worked for NBC television network: it was while working at NBC that he learned how to produce teleplays and, shortly after, began writing his own television scripts. He solely created the TV series ''The Invaders'' and also scripted episodes of ''The Defenders'' and ''The Fugitive''.〔Layne, Brian, ''Larry Cohen Interview'' in ''Films in Review'', p. 1, December 21, 2009〕
