Question: Which film has the director died earlier, The Last House on the Beach or Africa Texas Style?

Roger Michael Watkins (September 17, 1948 – March 6, 2007) was an American film director best known for the 1970s grindhouse movie "Last House on Dead End Street". He also directed several adult films, working with pornography actors such as Jamie Gillis and Vanessa del Rio. The Internet Movie Database lists a number of Watkins' aliases (see the information box at right), most of which seem to have been used in "Last House on Dead End Street" to conceal the fact that he worked in several capacities on that film (director, actor, writer, editor, and producer). <SEP> Last House on Dead End Street, originally released as The Fun House, is a 1977 American exploitation horror film written, produced, and directed by Roger Watkins, under the pseudonym Victor Janos. The plot follows a disgruntled ex-convict( also played by Watkins) who takes revenge on society by kidnapping four acquaintances and filming their murders in an abandoned building. Watkins, a student at the State University of New York at Oneonta, devised the concept for the film after reading the Charles Manson biography" The Family"( 1971) by Ed Sanders. Commissioning a cast from the university's theater department, Watkins shot the film inside an unused building on the university campus in the winter of 1972, on a budget of around$ 3,000. Screened under the title" The Cuckoo Clocks of Hell" at the 1973 Cannes and Berlin Film Festivals, Watkins's original cut of the film( now lost) ran approximately three hours in length. A truncated version of the film was released theatrically in 1977 under the title" The Fun House". In 1979, Cinematic Releasing Corporation acquired distribution rights to the film and re-released it under the title" Last House on Dead End Street", capitalizing on the popularity of Wes Craven's" The Last House on the Left". In the decades following its release," Last House on Dead End Street" was subject to various rumors about who had created and starred in it, as the entire cast and crew were credited using pseudonyms. This resulted in speculation that the film might have depicted actual murders. In 2000, Watkins publicly came forward and confirmed himself as the director, writer, and lead actor. Two years later, the film was released for the first time on DVD, through participation from Watkins, and with the actual names of the actors revealed. The film has continued to be a point of discussion among film scholars, largely due to its metafilmic qualities, surrealist imagery, and themes surrounding the aestheticization of violence in cinema. <SEP> The American title refers to Wes Craven's" The Last House on the Left", and Alexandra Heller- Nicholas stated how" combining the nunsploitation subgenre with rape- revenge, the film deviates plot- wise from" The Last House on the Left" substantially, but arrives at a similar ethical conclusion". It was argued that the final scene of the movie inspired the final scene in Quentin Tarantino's" Death Proof". The Last House on the Beach( Italian: La settima donna, also known as" Terror" and" The Seventh Woman") is a 1978 Italian rape and revenge- thriller film directed by Franco Prosperi. <SEP> The plot is about two American cowboys who are hired by a British rancher to oversee his estate in Kenya. Shot on location in Africa and Florida, this film led to the TV show "Cowboy in Africa" starring Chuck Connors. Africa Texas Style is a 1967 British adventure film directed by Andrew Marton and starring John Mills, Hugh O'Brian and Nigel Green. The opening scene of the film includes a cameo appearance by star Mills' equally famous actress-daughter Hayley Mills. <SEP> Born Francesco Prosperi in Rome, Prosperi began his career as an assistant director with Mario Bava and with whom he also wrote several screenplays. In 1966, he made his directorial debut, credited as Frank Shannon, with the thriller film, "Tecnica di un omicidio" and over the years he built a solid reputation as a director of crime-action films. Franco Prosperi (2 September 1926 – 17 October 2004) was an Italian film director and screenwriter, active between the mid-1960s and the early 1980s. He also occasionally directed comedies (with Lando Buzzanca or Alighiero Noschese) and, in the final stage of his career, at the beginning of the 1980s, several low-budget sword and sorcery films. <SEP> In his career, he directed 39 films and television programs, and worked on 16 as a second unit director, including the chariot race in" Ben Hur"( 1959). Andrew Marton( born Endre Marton; 26 January 1904 – 7 January 1992) was a Hungarian- American film director.
