Dudes on Movies

253 - The Beastmaster

The Dudes gyrate around a cauldron with 1982's The Beastmaster.  Full of imagination and ideas, this ambitious film that played for years on Basic and Premium Cable is a worthy Sword and Sorcery entry, an unfairly maligned genre.  So strip to your loincloths and cacaw from mountaintops, because if you're in the right headspace, this one is as fun as movies get.
Other movies discussed:
The Man Who Came To Dinner (1942) - Directed by William Keighley
Johnny Belinda (1948) - Directed by Jean Negulesco

252 - Caligula: The Ultimate Cut

The Dudes are no longer in a porno with Caligula: The Ultimate Cut! Completely rebuilt from recently discovered archival footage, not a single frame is the same as the 1979 original. Alternate takes, angles, and audio create a completely new experience. And this time it makes sense! But don't worry, there's still plenty of depravity to enjoy. Baaaa!
 
Other movies discussed:
Meet Me In St. Louis (1944) - Directed by Vincente Minnelli
The Terminator (1984) - Directed by James Cameron

251 - The Apartment

The Dudes are astonished by the depths of careerism and self-loathing with 1960's The Apartment.  This witty, Billy Wilder-directed classic is heartfelt, funny, and romantic.  It's also tragic, and a hard look at what can happen when we sit idly by and allow the people in charge do whatever they want.  This New Year's Eve, be a Fran, not a Sheldrake.     
 
Other movies discussed:
Brian Eno - 1971-1977: The Man Who Fell to Earth (2012) - Directed by Ed Haynes
Take Shelter (2011) - Directed by Jeff Nichols
 
QUESTION OF THE WEEK:
What are the best movies where you're mad at the main character?

249 - My Dinner With Andre

After referencing it for years, The Dudes finally cover 1981's My Dinner With Andre.  Wallace Shawn and Andre Gregory are very different people, but as writers and performers, their collaboration is perfectly synchronized.  Written by the two leads, this film is a dramatization of a conversation based on real events and experiences from each man's life.  It's also Dave's favorite movie, and seeing it will finally make you realize why he's like this.       
Other movies discussed:
The Godfather : Part II (1974) - Directed by Francis Ford Coppola
Bad Times At The El Royale (2018) - Directed by Drew Goddard

248 - Zodiac

The Dudes try to solve a cold case with 2007's Zodiac. David Fincher expertly captured the exhaustive fervor, mass hysteria and obsessive paranoia surrounding this famous true-crime event. The acting is phenomenal, the attention to detail is meticulous, and the lack of Oscar nominations is unforgivable. Try not to ruin your life while listening to this one - it just might happen...
 
Other movies discussed:
Heretic (2024) - Directed by Scott Beck and Bryan Woods
Hannah and Her Sisters (1986) - Directed by Woody Allen
QUESTION OF THE WEEK:

247 - Her

The Dudes fall in love with a digital woman in 2013's Her. Spike Jonze's exploration of human connection and the overreliance of technology in our lives is funny, romantic, sad, and hopeful all at the same time. Every moment feels real. Every scene feels earned. Remember, there are a lot of dangers with AI, but you can say the same about love.
 
Other movies discussed:
Fear City (1984) - Directed by Abel Ferrara
Fallen (1998) - Directed by Gregory Hoblit
QUESTION OF THE WEEK:

246 - Blood Rage

The Dudes haven't covered Twin Magic in a while, so they head to America's most questionable state for Thanksgiving sex and violence with 1987's Blood Rage.  This slasher that went through 4 different titles is a wild romp and delivers everything you expect.  It also features the weirdest performance of Louise Lasser's career.       
Other movies discussed:
Anora (2024) - Directed by Sean Baker
Children Of The Damned (1964) - Directed by Anton M. Leader

245 - Village of the Damned (1960)

The Dudes get eyeball zapped by creepy kids in 1960's Village of the Damned. If you like weird kids doing weird stuff, then this is the film for you. It's got mind control, casual spousal abuse, and custom explosives! The dudes have a theory as to what caused all this madness, but it's too nasty to type. You'll have to listen.
 
Other movies discussed:
Conclave (2024) - Edward Berger
MaXXXine (2024) - Directed by Ti West
QUESTION OF THE WEEK:
What are the scariest movies about children?
