Mike and Jay return to the usual Filmjitsu format with Jay hurling the grenade that is 1953's "Glen or Glena," the notorious Edward D, Wood, Jr. picture that revels in the pleasures of angora and monotonous narration. Is this a prescient look into gender identity, a lurid sensationalist cash-grab or simply inept filmmaking at its worst? The guys try to answer all this while also dealing with the presence of a seemingly stoned Bela Lugosi, whose top-billing in the film sets up the guys' bottom five misleading marquees. This list of the worst examples of cinematic bait-and-switch, where posters scream big names above the title when the talent are barely in the films, is followed by a cross-dressing-theme game of Kick Two, Pick Two that pits the likes of Robin Williams versus Tim Curry!
