Colorful American film director and pulp author (1924–1978) who, though widely reviled in his lifetime, became the subject of cult-like fascination after his death. Wood’s reputation, such as it is, rests primarily on a string of films that attained legendary status for their singular combination of laughable production values, ridiculous dialogue, stilted performances, and haphazard direction. Original two-page handwritten funeral eulogy, 8.5 x 13, undated. Penned and delivered by minister and actor David DeMering, who co-starred with Wood in two films and served as minister at Woods’ 1978 funeral. In part with original spelling retained, “We are here today to pay our respects, and to honor the memory of our good and loyal friend, Eddy D. Wood Jr…Most of us here have worked with Ed in one or more capacities. He acted, wrote, produced and directed with such stars as Bela Lagusa, Tor Johnson, Ken Duncan, Lyle Tylbert, Gregory Walcott, Tom Keen, Johnie Carpenter, Chriswell, Vampira, and Paul Marco, and myself, David DeMering…Ed was instrumental in bringing Bela Lagusa back into pictures after a number of years out of the industry…Now in keeping with what I am sure would be Ed’s wishes let us all drink a toast to his memory and wish him the very best in his life to come.” In fine condition, with several small tears at the top of the first page, light creases, a small smudge, and a horizontal fold. A one-of-a-kind piece of cult film memorabilia. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
