The Haunted World Of Edward D. Wood, Jr.

Who was Edward D. Wood, Jr.? Was he the heroic World War II marine who wore ladies' underwear during the battle of Tarawa? Was he the handsome man secretly a transvestite who attracted the most beautiful starlets of Hollywood? Or was he the Orson Welles of B films, the discoverer of the Herculean Steve Reeves, and the faithful friend of "Dracula" Bela Lugosí? Brett Thompson has put together interviews, pieces of films, and other neverbeforeseen material in his ten years of research that brings us back to the fantastic world of Edward D. Wood, Jr., Not only this, but it brings us back to that fabulous American film era when this director lived and worked with its war heroes, little starlets, producers with cigars in their mouths, and actors who were already characters in themselves. They were all full of grandiose dreams but without the money to make them come true. At the end, there is Wood's "lost" first shot film Crossroads at Laredo.
