"—where garbage comes to life."
— (Erik Olund's video opener and slogan)

Living up to its name, Erik Olund (aka ShogunGin0) reviews, discusses, criticizes and evaluates certain animated movies that are considered to be the worst to ever be made (e.g. Delgo, Happily N'Ever After). Many of his videos are filmed in one location; hence the videos themselves are rather simple and minimalistic yet informative and witty at the same time.

His first episode featured the "review" of the movie Happily N'Ever After on January 15, 2011. Erik's latest video to date was also in 2011 (June, to be exact), ending with a review of the infamous Doogal.

After a one and a half year hiatus, Erik announced that he will be resuming the series. The brand new season premiered on December 7, 2012 with a review of The Legend of the Titanic which you can see here.

Provides examples of:

  • Berserk Button: He really hates bad animated movement, poorly-made CG models, and points out the tiniest animation mistakes that a casual viewer couldn’t care less about. Naturally, he's taking animation classes.
  • Bile Fascination: invoked He tends to review movies with abysmal reception, be it due to bad animation, terrible/cliched plot, or a combination of the two.
  • Caustic Critic: Erik is this towards the animated films or cartoon shows he reviews. And if he's seen suffering from the sheer poor quality of whatever he's reviewing, all the better.
  • Deadpan Snarker: He tends to drop blunt remarks occasionally.
  • Limited Wardrobe:
    • At first, Erik doesn't seem to wear anything else besides a dark grey jacket.
    • He later wears a white tee-shirt, but those are the only two things he's even seen wearing.
  • One-Man Band: The credits contain only his name as writer, producer, and director.
