When It Came To Making Bad Movies, Ed Wood Was The Best.

With an oddball collection of showbiz misfits, Ed takes the art of bad moviemaking to an all-time low! The all-star cast features funnyman Bill Murray (Lost In Translation, The Royal Tenenbaums), sexy Sarah Jessica Parker (TV's Sex And The City), beautiful Patricia Arquette (Stigmata, Little Nicky) and an Academy Award-winning performance by Martin Landau as Bela Lugosi! Hailed by critics everywhere, this touching comedy his is sure to entertain everyone!

Fantastic movie, top notch features. - 4.75 out of 5 (10/21/2004)
This is a terrific movie, even if you've never seen a real Ed Wood movie...it'll make you want to! Martin Landau is wonderful as Bela Lugosi, and everyone else is great too, especially Bill Murray. Buy one for a friend!
