Wood's movies were technically as good as everyone else's. The photographic imagery in Plan 9 is sharp and the sound is crisp and clear. He simply had no talent as a writer and director even when he was able to hire a few decent actors like Lugosi and Gregory Walcott.
The Unearthly with John Carradine and Allison Hayes probably comes closest to being an Ed Wood type production with a larger budget and coherent script. It is done on a single set (house interior and surrounding garden), features Tor Johnson and is occasionally amusing. No incomprehensible dialogue (Pull the String!) or angora sweaters in this one, however.
