Biography
After assisting his father, Victor Adamson, in making the 1963 movie Halfway to Hell, Adamson decided to work in the motion picture industry himself. Three years later he and Sam Sherman founded Independent-International Pictures, which became the vehicle for the many movies he directed. Among them are Psycho-A-Go-Go (later re-worked into Blood of Ghastly Horror), Satan's Sadists and Dracula vs. Frankenstein. His wife, actress Regina Carrol, performed in many of his films.
Death
Al Adamson was reported missing in 1995. Five weeks later, after law enforcement officials discovered his remains beneath the concrete and tile-covered floor where his hot tub once sat at his home in Indio, California, his live-in contractor Fred Fulford was arrested at the Coral Reef Hotel in Saint Petersburg, Florida. Fulford was charged with and convicted of murder, and sentenced to 25 years to life in prison. The case of Al Adamson's murder is documented in the Investigation Discovery television series' Forensic Detectives, (ep. "Buried Secrets"), The New Detectives, (season 07, episode 11), and A Stranger In My Home (season 02, episode 06, "Death's Final Cut").
