Necromania (sometimes subtitled "A Tale of Weird Love") is a formerly "lost" porn film by Edward D. Wood, Jr., released in 1971. Thought lost for years, it resurfaced in edited form on Mike Vraney's Something Weird imprint in the late 1980s, then was re-released on DVD by Fleshbot Films in 2005.
The plot (based on Wood's novel "The Only House") involves a couple, Danny and Shirley, who visit necromancer Madame Heles for a witchcraft solution to Danny's erectile dysfunction problem.
The Amazing Criswell's coffin makes an appearance in the film, the third of Wood's films in which it does. (Night of the Ghouls and Plan 9 from Outer Space are the other two.)
