190 - The Invisible Man (1933)

Dudes on Movies ·

2023/10/30

The Dudes unleash a terrible power on the world with 1933's The Invisible Man. While James Whale's adaptation of the H.G. Wells classic is a masterclass of practical special effects, it also ponders evil while being hilarious. Its the work of true artists and craftsmen, and in another 90 years will likely still impress. Other movies discussed: Q: The Winged Serpent (1982) – Directed by Larry Cohen The Many Saints of Newark (2021) – Directed by Alan Taylor QUESTION OF THE WEEK: What is your

2023/10/23

The Dudes attempt to fit in with both old guys and every teen subculture with 1985's zombie classic The Return of the Living Dead. This near-perfect blend of horror, comedy and social commentary was another entry in the canon of VHS boxes that intrigued you as a child at the video store. The good news? Its even better than you hoped it was! Other movies discussed: Skinamarink (2022) – Directed by Kyle Edward Ball The Killing (1956) – Directed by Stanley Kubrick QUESTION OF THE WEEK: What are the

187 - Society

Dudes on Movies ·

2023/10/09

The Dudes' fear of rich people is proven completely justified with 1989's Society. Like El Guapo, this film is not just famous, it's IN-famous, mainly due to its unforgettable final act that will leave you wishing you'd never investigated the taste of The Shunt. It's Halloween everybody, let's get repulsive!

186 - Possession

Dudes on Movies ·

2023/10/02

The Dudes abandon their failed marriage and nurture something new with 1981's Possession. There may be a few bodies (and tentacles) along the way, but that's a small price to pay for happiness. This film is infamous for many reasons, but it's the unforgettable performances that ground it for the audience, shocked as they may be. Buckle up! Other movies discussed: Battleship Potemkin (1925) – Directed by Sergei Eisenstein Tetsuo the Iron Man (1989) – Directed by Shinya Tsukamoto QUESTION OF THE

Dudes on Movies ·

2023/09/25

Mom and Dad are fighting again, so The Dudes employ Twin Magic to put things right with 1961's The Parent Trap. The amazing Hayley Mills anchors this movie that was formative cinema for Dave, so be prepared for him to wax nostalgic like he's at death's door. Come for the romance, stay for the hooliganism!

184 - Judas and the Black Messiah

Dudes on Movies ·

2023/09/18

The Dudes go undercover in 2021's Judas and the Black Messiah. This important film about Chicago Black Panther leader Fred Hampton highlights the lengths that America will go to in order to maintain the status quo of oppression and inequality, and also includes some of the greatest performances of the decade. Give it a listen, and become a revolutionary. Other movies discussed: Gone with the Wind (1939) – Directed by Victor Fleming Drive My Car (2021) – Directed by Ryusuke Hamaguchi QUESTION OF THE

183 - Desperado

Dudes on Movies ·

2023/09/11

The Dudes head to Old Mexico for a sexy, bloody romp with 1995's Desperado! Robert Rodriguez's 2nd film is one hell of a ride. Watch it over and over again, then treat yourself to the Special Features on the DVDs of his other films. (Seriously, look up 10 Minute Cooking School, then watch how easy you start making friends.)

182 - Five Easy Pieces

Dudes on Movies ·

2023/09/04

The Dudes attempt to understand male arrogance with 1970’s Five Easy Pieces. This seminal classic helped birth the American New Wave of cinema, as well as the Jack Nicholson we all know and love. How long can someone run from their demons without confronting them? How much contempt can one person have for another? And could a pompous celibate really hold that chicken between their knees? All this and more in today’s discussion! Other movies discussed: Hot Fuzz (2007) – Directed by Edgar Wright The

Dudes on Movies ·

2023/08/28

The Dudes step into a temporal wormhole with 1994's Timecop, a movie whose story had serious potential, but unlike its star, couldn't quite stick the landing. Is one of the most impressive physical feats in Cinema enough to make up for the film's weaknesses? Google "Timecop Splits" with the SafeSearch Off and report back!

180 - The Exorcist

Dudes on Movies ·

2023/08/21

The Dudes question their faith and square off with Captain Howdy in 1973’s The Exorcist. This controversial classic has been amazing and shocking audiences for 50 years, and continues to inspire debate and analysis to this day. And with the recent passing of director William Friedkin, the Dudes felt it was time to give their take. The power of Christ compels you to listen to this episode.

177 - Idiocracy

Dudes on Movies ·

2023/07/31

The Dudes are forced to navigate a world where every citizen behaves like your most ignorant uncle with 2006's Idiocracy. Mike Judge's cautionary tale somewhat polarizes Scott and Dave, but in the end we can all agree the world we currently inhabit wouldn't need that much of a push to become the one depicted here. Now go away, batin'. Other movies discussed: Oppenheimer (2023) – Directed by Christopher Nolan Midnight Mass (2021) – Directed by Mike Flanagan QUESTION OF THE WEEK What movies
