Take It Out in Trade is a 1970 softcore pornographic comedy, written, directed and edited by Ed Wood. The plot centers on a couple who hire a private investigator to locate their missing daughter. He finds her in a "house of ill-repute," full of various soft-core couplings. Ed Wood played a transvestite named Alecia in the film.

Ed Wood's widow Kathy remarked in 1992, "It was a cute little film that he cut and edited in his den on a moviola. He used some of our neighbors. Kenne Duncan's old girlfriend Nona Carver played an old whore, Sleazy Maizie Rumpledink. He wasn't really making any money out of it. He never did." Nona Carver said "We made it in Lakewood, in some private home, in about two days...There were two versions of the film, I think one had quite a bit of pornographic business in it, and there was one that didn't..... In the film this guy comes in, starts beating me up, and I scream and cry. Evidently, it sounded so real the police came!" Sci-fi film director Ron Ashcroft commented that he watched Wood edit some of the film in his den, and did not think that he was that competent at editing from what he saw.Long believed to be a lost film, a single complete 80-minute 16mm release print from the archive of Something Weird Video was digitally scanned and screened in 2017, followed by a Blu-ray release in 2018.
