''Wave Twisters'' is a 2001 animated film set to the album of the same name by DJ Q-Bert, best known for scratching on ''[[KoolKeith Dr. Octagon]]''. It starts out with the simple premise of a group of heroes saving a lost culture. What follows is a [[MindScrew screwy]] quest across the stars to spread hip-hop to the masses and thwart the plans of a purple worm overlord living in the navel of an equally purple infant and his headless horde of space bikers. Our heroes are Dr. Julio Azul [=DDS=], his secretary Honey Drips, his robot assistant Rubbish and an elderly b-boy named Grandpa.
