Robert Alan Brownell (November 2, 1946 – July 3, 2016),[citation needed] known professionally as Alan Roberts, was an American filmmaker best known for directing low-budget films including Karate Cop[1] and The Happy Hooker Goes Hollywood.[2] Roberts began his career as a director. After 1994 most of his work was as an editor. Roberts' Young Lady Chatterly series is "a classical vehicle in the Emmanuelle mode."[3]
In 1983, Roberts designed and produced the adult-themed Atari 2600 game X-Man. The game was controversial and sold poorly.
In 2011, Roberts was involved in production of the film Desert Warriors. The film was substantially altered by others[citation needed], and released as the anti-Islamic film Innocence of Muslims in 2012.[4][5]
