Last time we turned non-horror films into horror films. This time we try to turn serious films into something funny and/or ridiculous. The only rules were we had to change the original film's title and at least one actor.

This is our first mini-episode. It consists of a few random conversations and one of the funniest moments of our earlier years: Mike's spelling mistake. Our very first logo was posted as "Sivler Srceen Cynics." That was amazing!

We love when practical effects are used in good taste. When they miss the mark completely though? It can be hard to watch. This is our list of horrible uses of practical effects.

Some directors managed to start their feature film careers on a really good note. This is our list.
