Monday Movie [Parte 5]

Dudes (1987)/ dir. Penelope Spheeris

"Real life is NOT California. Real life is a shit sandwich... and everyday you gotta take another bite."

Penelope Spheeris (best known for her rockumentary series The Decline Of Western Civilization, and Wayne's World) directs this teen revenge flick where a trio of rockers (John Cryer, Daniel Roebuck, & Flea) decide to ditch their city gutter punk life and head out to California. After encountering some killer biker trash their plans get diverted. Cryer has an American Indian spiritual awakening and Roebuck learns to shoot guns from a wild west babe. Aimless teens become empowered and revenge ensues.

Flea gets offed in the first fifteen minutes which is lamentable and the plot gets so crazy garbled at the end, but this just makes it all the better to drink PBR tall boys to.
