Movie Reviews of The Ed Wood Box (Glen or Glenda / Jail Bait / Bride of the Monster / Plan 9 from Outer Space / Night of the Ghouls / The Haunted World of Ed Wood)
Movie Review: Great set for Ed Wood fans!
Summary: 5 Stars
If you are here, You know what the movies are about, so I won't bore you with descriptions. However, I will give a brief review of the V/A quality of the discs. I recently purchased this set and was amazed on how good these films looked. I was expecting some grainy, 16mm style transfers, but was surprised to see them in superb quality! A great job by Image. The audio is pretty clear, but don't expect much considering the low budget nature of these films. Plan 9 and Haunted World dvds contain some excellent extra features while the other discs contain a theatrical trailer of each film. Also, the Haunted World disc also features Ed Wood's first film "Crossroads at Laredo"!! Considering the cheap price, I highly recommend this to E.W. fans and even those curious (after seeing Tim Burton's excellent ED WOOD film).
Summary of The Ed Wood Box (Glen or Glenda / Jail Bait / Bride of the Monster / Plan 9 from Outer Space / Night of the Ghouls / The Haunted World of Ed Wood)
Weird! Wild! Wood! The most legendary B-movie director of all time, Edward D. Wood, Jr. assaulted audiences worldwide with a string of bizarre, no-budget fusions of horror, science fiction, noir and comedy. Now his oddball legacy is finally collected in one indispensable box set! Feast your eyes on his first feature, the madcap Glen or Glenda? in which Eddie himself portrays a transvestite struggling with his addiction to angora while Bela Lugosi offers inscrutable narration. Blackmail, outlaws on the run, and plastic surgery collide in the surreal crime drama Jail Bait, featuring a young Steve Reeves (Hercules), while Bela returns to create the Bride of the Monster in a heady collision of atomic experiments, a rampaging octopus and clumsy assistant Lobo (played by wrestler Tor Johnson). Wood's indisputable disasterpiece, Plan 9 from Outer Space, offers pie-plate flying saucers, incompetent alien leaders, all-seeing psychic Criswell, goth favorite Vampira and a post-mortem appearance by Lugosi himself in his last film role. Then Lobo and a phony spiritualist usher in a Night of the Ghouls at a spooky marsh filled with shuffling undead and wailing ghosts. Finally, learn all about the man himself with The Haunted World of Ed Wood, a comprehensive disc packed with interviews, film clips, TV rarities and much more! It's enough to make you scream!Drama DVD Video
