Thanks for your report!
Do you know if "Grindhouse 2wo" was ever released? The date here on TMDb (2016-01-01) seems very wrong -> I found an old twitter and facebook page from 2012 here:
https://twitter.com/grindhouse2
https://www.facebook.com/Grindhouse-2-308801735837789
And I found a listing with a DVD release date 2011/12/25 - but on Amazon it's completely empty:
https://www.hive.co.uk/Product/Grindhouse-2wo/13079965
https://www.amazon.de/Grindhouse-2Wo-DVD-18/dp/B006J7L5AC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1518811412&sr=8-1&keywords=Grindhouse+2wo+-+DVD
So, I wonder if this DVD was ever released - or just stuck in production all this time, waiting for a distributor?!?
"Grindhouse Nightmares" was released in 2017/2018 -> here are 2 reviews and the page of the production company,

I'm stuck over this question and don't know how to proceed with editing the pages here on TMDb? And IMDb does not help -> they also have 2 pages with minimal info:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2340946 -> Grindhouse 2wo
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt7520216 -> Grindhouse Nightmares

This seems to be a real mess!
According to this page...
enter link description here
...Grindhouse 2wo was supposed to be released on Feb 27, 2012, but I can't find any evidence that it actually came out at all. My guess is that it sat around for 6 years and was finally released digitally as "Grindhouse Nightmares".
I think the IMDb listings are wrong. I would create a page for "Grindhouse Nightmares" with a release date of 2017/18 and leave it at that, maybe including the "2wo" title as an alternate.

Ah, I missed that post on the facebook page! It's even more strange that there's no info about the release afterwards - just silence.
Yes, I think the same! And here's an article about the director Richard Driscoll that seems to give the impression that he's not very reliable when it comes to releases:

Yes, that's the best solution for this mess right now! So, I just moved all the info around and
deleted this one: https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/505000-grindhouse-nightmares
and kept this one: https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/416217-grindhouse-nightmares
One thing I couldn't find out is the exact date for the digital release in 2017 - that's most likely the first release! You can watch it both on Amazon and on itunes, but I can't find a date since when exactly?!? (The DVD release in the US was on February 13, 2018.)
But that's it from me - I don't want to research this title any longer. I'll keep this discussion open for other moderators and users to take a look at this!
