    #92 The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl (2005)

    What can we even say about The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl?!To some it's a garish torture for the senses, to others it's an experiment in film making so revolutionary it may never be repeated.From Robert Rodriguez, indie extraordinaire and grindhouse mastermind, a film straight from the dreams of his own 7 year old son - maddeningly low quality CG, absurd dream logic and a story progression only a child can follow - Sharkboy and Lavagirl is one of the strangest movies we've seen, and possibly, one of our favorites!

    #93 Piranha 3DD (2012)

    In 1978, Joe Dante (Gremlins, Gremlins 2) brought us the first in a string of Piranha films. Starting as a fun horror/comedy riding on the back of the Jaws craze, the spirit was somehow lost as the series continued from Piranha 2: The Spawning (1982) to Piranha 3D (2010) to the last and likely final installment Piranha 3DD (2012). Swimming in a sea of wasted potential, Piranha 3DD exists as a boner-comedy conundrum, boasting a barely feature length - the majority of which is more boner than comedy - the film somehow pulls off a surprisingly hilarious and gory finish, worthy of any lowbrow schlock-lovers time!

    #94 I Know Who Killed Me (2007)

    Psychic cyborg stripper twins VS the Blue Death! Otherwise known as I Know Who Killed Me... a notorious film from 2007 starring a young and rebellious Lindsay Lohan. Known to some as one of the worst movies ever made, but to others a skillful modern take on the classic 70's italian Giallo genre - I Know Who Killed Me is a breath of fresh air for us! Prepare for an unpredictably gory, strangely funny, and absurdly edited flop-turned-masterpiece!

    #95 The Love Guru (2008)

    intimacy = into me, I see We're back on our bullshit, Descendants... 95 on our list is the Mike Myers classic, The Love Guru. Prepared as the next big hit and first in a potential multi-film series, The Love Guru was a long incubated Mike Myers mind baby - that unfortunately should never have been born. Prepare to cringe your way through a well crafted joke with a punchline as lame as a mop drenched in piss.

    Special Episode: The Zookeeper (2011) vs. The Church (1989)

    It’s our first super sPeCiAl episode! Just in time for spooky season, the will-of-the-dice brought us our strangest episode yet - a comparison between The Zookeeper (2011) and The Church (1989).These two seemingly diametrically opposed films, through the dissection and brilliance of a Philosophy Major (Joel) and an Art School grad (Erik) - actually share common themes of religion, justice, revenge and sin. Come with us as we lose our minds together - oh, and happy halloween.
