Any of Ed's films are worth checking out man. Ive seen 3 (Plan 9, Bride of the Atom, Night of the Ghouls), and I intend to buy the Ed Wood box as soon as I can.

Tim Burton's film is one of my favourites as well. Landau definatly deserved ever inch of his Oscar, and Depp was robbed IMO.

I got the box for around $25. it may well be the best $25 I have ever spent. while I personally feel that all of his films are worth watching, there are definitely some that require a bit more patience than others. namely his later stuff like "Orgy of the Dead" which is, basically, topless girls wiggling in a graveyard.

the box you mention contains a movie which I thought was great, and which I had never heard of. "Jail Bait." and no, it's not what you're thinking. it's a crime drama with a Tales from the Crypt-esque twist.

"Night of the Ghouls" is probly my favorite of his, though, despite the greatness of Plan 9 or Bride of the Monster/Atom.

the Ed Wood box contains:

Glen, or Glenda?

Plan 9 From Outer Space

Jail Bait

Bride of the Monster

Night of the Ghouls

and the sixth disc is a documentary about him. all in all, to me it was well worth the price. but I guess that depends on if you're an Ed Wood fan.

It follows Ed Wood from him trying to get Glen or Glenda to direct, to meeting Bela Lugosi, to finally the release of Plan 9 From Outer Space. It's a great movie, and definitly worth a watch.
Maybe several.

What did you think of the documentary? I didnt care for it too much, way too negative. I absolutly hared Bela Lugosi's son.
