With a dash of personal stories, detailed breakdowns, and a healthy dose of nostalgia, Tosin and Holly remind us that sometimes, the worst movies teach us the most about ourselves—and about how deeply we love film, in all its crazy forms.Whether you’re a cinephile craving obscure gem debates or just in need of some side-splitting, off-the-rails banter, this episode will leave you laughing, curious, and maybe even inspired to seek out that hidden “so bad it’s good” masterpiece.
