Viewing Notes

First film of BTSNAT 2! Noah’s pick was Dudes (1987), a DAM flick and one I’ve always wanted to see having owned the metal-laced soundtrack for over 20 years (ex. W.A.S.P.‘s “Show No Mercy”!!). Directed by Penelope Spheeris, Dudes features Jon Cryer and Daniel Roebuck as punks on a coast-to-coast road trip until they encounter redneck trouble and seek revenge. Such a solid flick. Great start to BTSNAT!
