It's excellent. Honest, but ultimately loving, it tracks the so-called "worst director of all time"'s life through interviews with the people that worked with him and rare footage and photographs. Vampira is particularly entertaining. The disc also includes Crossroads of Laredo, Wood's first (and unfinished) film, a 25-minute western finally edited and scored, and by turns touching and ridiculously bad. Director Brett Thompson assembles a small group of people to do commentary on both films, as well as on footage of a couple premiere events, and these are as insightful as the films themselves. Additional documents include a couple hundred pictures and drawings, easter eggs on each menu, and an uncut interview with the director for the A&E Biography on his school chum Tim Burton, only relevant because Haunted World acts as a kind of answer to the artistic license shown in Burton's Ed Wood. Consider the record set straight. 8 years 8 months ago -
