It’s Ed Wood’s centenary year, and in celebration, Chris and Charlotte are giving in to The Sinister Urge. It’s leading them down a dark path towards smut, dirty pictures, deathly orgies, love feasts, and taking it out in trade.
Thank goodness this experiment also features an educational short about Keeping Clean and Neat!
