Movie Description:
How could it be that Ed Wood,Jr., theyoung man who wore a woman`s bra and panties at the Battle of Tarawa in WorldWar II,went on to become the OrsonWelles of low-budget films? Through filmclips, still photos andextensive interviews withthe bizarre cadre of actors,ministers and girlfriends whowere involved in such projects as Wood`sPLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACEand GLEN OR GLENDA?, this feature film explores the man andthe cult legend that has sprungup since his death. Wood`s status as theWorst Filmmaker of All Time has brought him posthumous acclaim in both the film and artworlds- a recognition hardlyimaginable to the man who died pennilessand unknown in the late1970s. A perfectcompanion to Tim Burton`s "Ed Wood" and for lovers of "B" horror and sci-ficinema.
