Which is your favorite Ed Wood experiment (and I'm including Racket Girls,
since it is so obviously by Ed Wood - writing-wise, minimum.)

I'm currently watching "Bride of the Monster," so that is my favorite.
I haven't watched it in awhile and am wondering: Bride? Monster?
Octopus? McCloud?

If you're talking MST3K eps, definitely BotM. Just plain goofy fun.

If you're talking Ed Wood movies in general, then 'Glen or Glenda.'
So heartfelt and so awful at the same time. It's riveting.

I think my favorite is The Violent Years. Especially MatB reaction to the
"Male Rape" scene.

Awfully late, but since not a lot gets posted here....

The Sinister Urge feels like a nice warm blanket. It's such a silly movie
and I love it.

I was amazed at how bad Racket Girls was. A movie about women wrestling
should not be so boring and so untitillating. It was as if they became
ashamed of the prurient interest that caused them to want to make the film
in the first place and decided to have endless scenes featuring unattractive
mobster-types in penance for it.
