Toward the end of his life, Wood made pornographic movies and wrote pulp crime, horror, and sex novels. He was able to salvage a saleable feature from Lugosi's last moments on film, but his career declined thereafter. Wood's popularity waned soon after his biggest "name" star, Béla Lugosi, died. In the 1950s, Wood made a run of independently produced, extremely low-budget horror, science fiction, and cowboy films, now celebrated for their technical errors, unsophisticated special effects, idiosyncratic dialogue, eccentric casts, and outlandish plot elements, although his flair for showmanship gave his productions at least a modicum of commercial success.
(Octo– December 10, 1978) was an American screenwriter, director, producer, actor, author, and editor (often performing many of these functions simultaneously).
