After a few years directing in summer theater, Hellman hooked up with legendary "B" movie producer Roger Corman in the late 1950s. Corman helped finance Hellman's production of "Waiting For Godot", the the first time that Samuel Beckett's play had been staged in Los Angeles; the Los Angeles Times said it was "directed with wisdom, devotion and perception.
" Hellman made his film directorial debut with Beast From Haunted Cave - The Original Schlock Classic (1959) and directed portions of Corman's The Terror (1963).
