Flix, 8 p.m., Oct. 31

In arguably Tim Burton’s best movie, Johnny Depp plays the worst director of all time, Ed Wood, whose insanely bad, low-budget schlock often starred Bela Lugosi and various other has-beens. Martin Landau won an Oscar playing Lugosi, who can’t seem to believe he’s still playing Dracula after all these years. Depp is at his most arch and loopy. It’s a crazy, and most excellent, film.
