Edgar Georg Ulmer (/'?lm?r/;September 17, 1904 – September 30, 1972) was a Jewish-Moravian, Austrian-American film director who mainly worked on Hollywood B movies and other low-budget productions, eventually earning the epithet 'The King of PRC', due to his extremely prolific output on the said Poverty Row studio.
His stylish and eccentric works came to be appreciated by auteur theory-espousing film critics in the years following his retirement.
Ulmer's most famous productions include the horror film The Black Cat (1934) and the film noir Detour (1945).
