It was officially voted the worst movie ever and stated this proudly on the box! It featured some very convincing sets including a cemetery and an airplane cockpit with some amazing special effects and even features Bela Lugosi - at least in the scenes he shot before his untimely death with his part being completed by another actor who doesn't quite 'fit' the role.
I assure you this film is must see, please please please someone find a copy to make this game complete!
I think I still have the box under a pile of junk, I'll try and dig it out and see if I can help with the copy protection...

Something always intrigued me about this game. The review at Just Adventure and The Underdogs say that in the end of the game you must edit the film, frame by frame, from the 6 reels you've found during the game. But it doesn't make sense - I played the game to the end and there was never anything like that! Also, the only (English) walkthrough that I know to exist never mentions anything even similar in the ending! The Abandonia review doesn't mention anything about it, by the way.
Here's a quote from the Underdogs review:

The most frustrating part of the game is perhaps right near the end, after you have found all 6 reels and are now screening the film. Here, you have to examine each scene in excruciating detail, with slow motion, freeze frame, fast forward and rewind-- many, many times over until the film's original awfulness is restored.[/b]

Here's a quote from Just Adventure:

But the most frustrating - but also most innovative – part of the game is at the very end when you must use a VCR-type machine to view actual scenes from the movie and restore them frame-by-frame. Kudos though to the developers for including such a complicated sequence in a DOS game.[/b]
|
It even seems that the game's box says it! Here's a quote from a page I found:
Quote:
|
splice and edit this cult classic using actual film footage. Extraordinary gameplay guaranteed.[/b]
|
Anyone played the game and had to recut the movie like all of the above quotes say? My game ended like the walkthrough, nothing ever seemed to be missing! :crazy: I hope to solve this mystery one day... How could they shove the entire film into a 4 disks floppy game??
Incidentally, there's also a German walkthrough, perhaps someone can take a look at the end and see what it says?

Jackie, You can try and search for the game on ebay, or maybe amazon. I hope you find it, it's quite a good game!

| Looking for this game. |
Hello. I am a fan and collector of Ed Wood. If anyone can tell me where I can find a copy of this game, I would be eternally grateful.

Thanks for the reminder - I didn't even realize it's in German (until now)...
