    It's the last episode of Season 3 and it's definitely not one to miss as I'm joined by Glenn Criddle, a.k.a. lampyman101. Glenn's the first YouTuber I subscribed to back in 2009 who talked about disturbing films, such as the Video Nasties.The first half of the episode is an interview with Glenn covering many topics, such as why he started his channel, how YouTube has changed, advice he'd give to people looking to start their own channel, and a lot more, including times he's received death threats (!!!) for his videos.For the rest of the episode, myself and Glenn review A Serbian Film - one I'm sure you've all been waiting for! Not only is it possibly the most disturbing and controversial film of all time, but also a very misunderstood film.Jump to 57:48 if you want to go straight to the review.It was an honour having Glenn on the show and I hope to do something with him again in the future.
