we fan of ed wood tend to be an obsessive bunch in the first place and but this movie in particular have drive me to a level of fan dom that i have never before approach . one of the most intense thrill of non mainstream movie adulation at least as far a i be concern be the pleasure of unearth the obscure . i remember how and a a teenager and i long to see eddie revenge of the dead ( a. k. a. night of the ghoul ) and which at that time have be vault for a couple of decade . likewise such arcane masterpiece of low budget filmmaking a doris wishman a night to dismember or half the work of jesus franco . however and recent year have see video and dvd render these once unfindable treasure almost too accessible even for those of u on the wrong ( . ) side of the atlantic . and then and behold and there be i wake up early the day i die a movie that should have be so big and yet which disappear into the ether even before fangoria print the first fairly lengthy article on it that first whet my appetite . the 1990s need a hard to find movie though which would really be worth hunt out represent and this and to be sure be it . i do not especially wish to add too much of a commentary on all those marvellous aspect of the film it classy yet kitsch cast and it haunting yet often hallucinogenic visuals and it wondrous moment of pure cinema ( in the sense of the 1920s french cineastes ) and surrealism and or even it resoundingly memorable soundtrack since this have all be describe most eloquently by other user here . what i do wish to mention and briefly and be the pleasure that i have receive also from hunt down certain obscure artefact relate to this almost lose to u but thankfully not quite movie . i think the german video and which i pick up while in cologne on a cold crisp winter day and be fairly well know to ed wood follower now . it be also quite common knowledge that a promotional poster for the film be release . however and there be thankfully more to be find . firstly and there be a number of review available from the film german theatrical release i have use several of these in my translation class in an attempt to woodify my student . some of these review be positive eulogy to the film artistry and entertainment value and most interesting of all be that most critic place it squarely within both the american trash and european arthouse tradition . secondly and there be the score by larry groupe and which can be acquire from the man himself many of the track exert a truly emotional pull on the listener and particularly if you be contemplate the film currently vault status and grow a little melancholy at the same time . finally for now i wish to mention the promo soundtrack that cinequanon put out in extremely limited number . beg and borrow and steal and kill or do whatever it take if you get the chance to acquire one of these . it feature 14 track from the film and include eartha kitt ballad and the late darcy clay jesus i be evil ( two version of which be also available on cd from new zealand and although that be another story again . ) and the cool radio music to which christina ricci dance and and also those amazing techno drop by minty and zhv ( the latter be billy z very own techno band ) . become obsessed let ed wood rule your life .
