264 - Blue Velvet

Dudes on Movies ·

2025/03/31

The Dudes discover the dark side of suburbia with 1986's Blue Velvet. If you've never experienced David Lynch, this is the place to start. It's got all the hallmarks: thrilling mystery, unsettling characters, and psycho-sexual encounters with people you probably shouldn't be involved with. Throw in an off-the-rails Dennis Hopper, and you've got a masterpiece. Just look out for severed ears.Other movies discussed: Black Bag (2025) - Directed by Steven Soderbergh Emilia Pérez (2024) - Directed by

262 - White Men Can't Jump

Dudes on Movies ·

2025/03/17

The Dudes talk a lot of trash with 1992's White Men Can't Jump. The chemistry between Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrelson, both on screen and on the court, is magnetic. But can they use their talents to hustle peace into their lives? Either way, it's going to be fun. And remember, sometimes when you win, you actually lose, but you can also actually tie or something.Other movies discussed: Woodlands Dark and Days Bewitched (2021) - Directed by Kier-La Janisse Saturday Night (2024) - Directed by

261 - Topsy-Turvy

Dudes on Movies ·

2025/03/10

The Dudes perform without their corsets with 1999's Topsy-Turvy. This story of Gilbert & Sullivan's Mikado collaboration, along with the inner-workings of the Savoy Theatre is one of Mike Leigh's greatest achievements. A successful opera isn't easy to pull together, and neither is a film that dramatizes such a production. It's also Leigh's funniest film, and once you realize how much work the cast put into this one, you'll probably pass out. But just have a cigarette, and you'll be

260 - The Man Who Wasn't There

Dudes on Movies ·

2025/03/03

The Dudes' blackmail plot goes awry in 2001's "The Man Who Wasn't There". Yeah, maybe it didn't go as planned, but they keep it cool, take another drag, and focus on the hair. Doris took the fall for Big Dave, but that's life. They aren't going to prance around about it. Besides, there's a young musician needing a boost. They can make that happen. Heaven to Betsy they can.Other movies discussed: Bullit (1968) - Directed by Peter Yates The Substance (2024) - Directed by Coralie Fargeat QUESTION

259 - The Wedding Singer

Dudes on Movies ·

2025/02/24

The Dudes accept meatballs as payment with 1998's The Wedding Singer. From everything we see, Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore are obviously meant for each other, but the movie won't let that happen, and almost takes pleasure in torturing you. What keeps you interested is the chemistry of the leads, and some genuine laughs. This is a good movie everybody, but it puts you to work.

258 - The Collector (1965)

Dudes on Movies ·

2025/02/17

The Dudes learn the best way to get to know somebody is to kidnap them, in 1965's The Collector! In William Wyler's final film, a lonely man kidnaps a woman because he wants her to love him. Of course, that's not how it works. Terror ensues, along with confusion, and Stockholm syndrome. Unfortunately, this movie proves that incels existed long before the internet. But it's ok, because they "have all the proper respects".Other movies discussed: Presence (2024) - Directed by Steven Soderbergh Panic

257 - The Burbs

Dudes on Movies ·

2025/02/10

The Dudes mow their lawn for the 800th time and then snap with 1989's The Burbs. This comedic study of life in a very sheltered environment exposes ugly secrets about how Americans view anything they're not used to. It also features an illogical ending that sends Dave on a filibuster. And just remember everybody: Satan is good, Satan is our pal.

256 - One Hour Photo

Dudes on Movies ·

2025/02/03

The dudes develop photos, and unhealthy obsessions, with 2002's One Hour Photo! This Robin Williams vehicle hinges on his playing against type. And it works. He steals customers' private photos, threatens naked people with hunting knives, and inappropriately gifts anime toys to little kids. It's everything Mrs. Doubtfire should have been!Other movies discussed: Forbidden Zone (1980) - Directed by Richard Elfman Maria (2024) - Directed by Pablo Larraín QUESTION OF THE WEEK: What are the best

255 - In Bruges

Dudes on Movies ·

2025/01/27

Dudes On Demand 2025 concludes as The Dudes brawl with Canadian tourists and look at Messianic blood with 2008's In Bruges. Like Goofus and Gallant, Ray's and Ken's life choices often contrast in a way that makes outsiders feel one man is better than the other. And this is correct. But every life has value, and though this movie contains a lot of death, it also celebrates life like few other films about career criminals would even attempt.Other movies discussed: Speak No Evil (2024) - Directed

254 - Spirited Away

Dudes on Movies ·

2025/01/20

The Dudes remember their names with 2001's Spirited Away! This masterpiece from Studio Ghibli is often considered the best animated film ever made. From the imaginative and relatable characters, the universal storytelling, and incredibly intricate visuals, this film has it all. It's not perfect, but it's damn near close. Watch it or I'll cry!

253 - The Beastmaster

Dudes on Movies ·

2025/01/13

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.

252 - Caligula: The Ultimate Cut

Dudes on Movies ·

2025/01/06

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.

251 - The Apartment

Dudes on Movies ·

2024/12/30

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.
