The Haunted World of Edward D. Wood, Jr. (DVD)
Ed Wood, since Tim Burton's biopic of the same name, has become the phenomenon that he always hoped he would be during his lifetime. Wood has become known as the worst movie director of all time and this documentary takes a comprehensive look back at his career and life. Featuring interviews with almost all of his stock company and many of the people who funded his films, THE HAUNTED WORLD paints an astonishing picture of a man very similar to the one portrayed in Burton's film. The film also features previously unseen film clips such as Wood's first television commercial (which never aired) and his first film, a western called THE CROSSROADS OF LAREDO. A remarkably in-depth and insightful documentary, THE HAUNTED WORLD OF EDWARD D. WOOD, JR. is a tremendously entertaining trip back in time to the world of one of the strangest men ever to get behind the camera.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Audio: Dolby Digital Mono - EnglishAdditional Release Material: Outtakes Additional Footage - CROSSROADS OF LAREDO - A rarely seen Ed Wood television program Audio Commentary Production InterviewText/Photo Galleries: Stills/Photos
