Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) have a twofer on this episode: they dive back into both the DTV action arena and the world of professional wrestling.

So, can this film centered around at least one marine clear the very low hurdl...

It’s Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch, the 2005 DTV animated sequel to the 2002 original Lilo & Stitch.

First off, your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) would like to warn you the subject of this episode, the 1996 DTV sequel Poison Ivy II: Lily, is pretty racy. It’s about a student who decides to become a sexy alter ego and tries to seduce her art teacher. It’s a ‘sleazy 90s softcore porn wannabe DTV thriller! So put on your black lipstick (properly) and list...

Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) finally talk about the first-ever Disney DTV animated sequel, 1994’s The Return of Jafar.

The conversation goes from Corey Feldman, to Tommy Wi...

Your hosts Sara (@SaraSorrentino), Ale (@Sick__66), and Shak (@ShakExcellence) discuss the DTV prequel to the comedy “classic” Van Wilder, Van Wilder: Freshman Year. It’s a raunchy comedy from the late 2000s that most certainly does make anyone reminiscent of the problematic days of 2000s comedies. You want misogyny? You want racism? You want inaccurate portrayals of vibrators? You got it all here...
