In previous articles, I have mentioned Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Paramount+,  Disney+, and Apple TV+.

By Jason Delgado  Ed Wood, a feature film about the so-called ‘world’s worst director of all-time’ (and his eccentric cast and crew) has been one of my favorite films since it was released in 1994.
