THE QUINTESSENTIAL "DON'T SEE IT STRAIGHT" MOVIE EVENT OF THE '90s.

PIC INFO: Resolution at 812x1212 -- Spotlight on an advance one-sheet movie poster design for the 1993 American stoner comedy "DAZED AND CONFUSED" (1993), written & directed by Richard Linklater. Gramercy Pictures.

"I have watched "Dazed and Confused" approximately sixty-five times, and I have been stoned for approximately sixty-four of those viewings. At this point, it seems unfathomable to watch this movie without being high; in fact, it’s entirely possible that watching this movie actively releases THC into my bloodstream. But I do know this: I was not smoking pot the first time I watched "Dazed and Confused." And I know this because I was drunk.

There has never been a movie I wanted to see as much as "Dazed and Confused." This was primarily due to my somewhat fanatical affinity for "Slacker" (1991), a movie I sometimes watched twice a day. Prior to "Slacker," it had never occurred to me that a narrative could exist without a plot, a rudimentary realization that instantaneously reinvented my understanding of almost everything. The fact that "Dazed and Confused" was named after a LED ZEPPELIN song was almost as important: as a college junior in 1993, I glamorized the 1970s to a degree that now seems absurd.

I had, technically, lived through 80 percent of that particular decade, but it still seemed distant and alien and unknowable; the culture of the recent past seemed wholly incomparable to the conditions of the present. At the time, my favorite rock bands were NIRVANA and GUNS N’ ROSES, but — even then — I certainly didn’t think either one was anything like ZEPPELIN (or even anything like Peter Frampton). That would have been like comparing Bill Clinton to Abe Lincoln. So even though I had no idea whatsoever about its plot, I suspected "Dazed and Confused" was going to incarnate a zeitgeist I wanted to inhabit yet never could (and never would). This was the kind of hopeless, self-reflexive dream that made very, very excited."

-- CRITERION COLLECTION, ""Dazed and Confused": Not So Long Ago, But Very Far Away," by Chuck Klosterman, c. fall 2011

At MIFF this year I saw Hello Dankness, the new film by Soda Jerk, which won several festival awards. Using Soda Jerk's signature pop-piracy sampling style, it draws heavily on American film and TV depictions of 'the suburbs' to stitch together an account of the US's post-truth journey into the heart of dankness, from the 2016 presidential elections onwards.

As their artist statement says, "We tried to scream, but all that came out was a meme."

It was literally the first time I had thought about the "dicks out for Harambe" meme since 2016.

Hello Dankness quite extensively samples This Is the End (2013), which left me with a hankering (a dankering?) to watch the film. When I saw it pop up on Stan last night, I thought, "Now's the time."

I missed the film when it was new, because there was a preview screening clash where two screenings were scheduled on the same night, and I chose the Pacific Rim screening instead (a film with which I became obsessed).

It's such a fascinating time capsule of the Apatovian heyday of gross-out 'manchild' and 'stoner' comedy. At the time it was mostly hailed as a self-indulgent minor entry in a subgenre already running on fumes.

But when I rewatched it last night, I was struck by how fresh and culturally relevant it still feels. Has public discourse just got danker over the past decade?

There's a whole act in the middle when the narrative momentum sags as the central group of frenemies barricade themselves in James Franco's house. But now to me it reads like the Covid-era lockdown malaise, when an initial fun buzz ("let's do all the drugs!" "let's make Pineapple Express 2!") gives way to boredom, bickering and a sense of mounting threat from outside.

It's also pre-#MeToo and yet it's prominently about unpleasant, self-obsessed men trying to reassure each other that they're 'good'.

There's a scene where the group get so worked up about their need to reassure Emma Watson that they don't pose a sexual threat to her that she ends up being convinced they're absolutely going to rape her, and ends up leaving, along with all their food and drink.

(Watson notoriously refused to participate in a later scene where Danny McBride has become the cannibal king of ruined Los Angeles, with Channing Tatum as his gimp.)

It was striking to watch an apocalyptic moral punishment come for people like James Franco and Jonah Hill.

Meanwhile, Seth Rogen and Jay Baruchel, who end up in heaven dancing with the Backstreet Boys, have basically turned out to be IRL mensches.

Even Craig Robinson, who's had some drug troubles, seems to be living a pretty wholesome life.

In a Daily Beast podcast appearance from May 2023, Baruchel said, "Jonah and I don't get along super well – or at least didn't back then." When the host observed that this comes across strongly onscreen, Baruchel replied, "Yeah, no shit it fucking does!"

Baruchel also recalled:

It was this weird thing of mining personal shit. But not for catharsis … mining it just for comedy. So mining it in the most monetized, capitalist way of, "we’re going to dig up real personal shit," but nobody’s going to go home feeling better about it. We’re just going to turn it into a fucking product.

We never talked about any of the real shit. Like, it never came up for real. Because we’re both 1982 kids, which means we were raised in a great misogynistic tradition of not talking about shit. Especially two boys … we'll air grievances. When we're mad at each other and say that, but it’s very rare to be vulnerable.

I don't know why I'm so frequently drawn to stories of male friendships, but at their best, the Apatovian cycle does create a mainstream space for male vulnerability – even though they frequently can't help undercutting the intimacy with 'no-homo' mockery or self-mockery, or diverting it into jokes about dicks and bodily functions.

As Baruchel said in 2020, "Crass, male gazey shit is definitely in the DNA of the thing, but so was heartbreak and wearing your heart on your sleeve and not being blessed with with every fucking advantage. They’re deeply human things, and were really imperfect and super honest and devoid of vanity."

Another Student Film

Working on an indie stoner comedy was my most exciting project to date. With a promising script, a gorgeous location and an amazing camera - the production was right on track. I worked as Director of Photography with an amazing and talented crew of five and cast of two. We wrapped the shoot in two days with minimal reshoots and an assortment of beautiful shots. Admittedly, I found myself slightly out of practice on the camera work but I quickly adjusted on set. One thing we learnt from this production is we have to allow more time for shooting each scene. We didn’t efficiently organise our time, leading to extra payments for the location and missing scenes due to the run time. But this is all a learning process, the footage was impressive and the story came together nicely and now we’re only waiting on the final edit.

My Top 10 favorite Stoner comedies

Today I FINALLY logged Knocked Up, the 2007 comedy from Judd Apatow (I actually watched it a day before 4/20 because I thought it would be fitting … I’ve accumulated a little bit of a backlog) and those first couple of movies got me thinking about what my favorite stoner comedies actually are. So. Here’s my list. Pineapple ExpressThe absolute classic. Quotable lines for days. Between the opening…

Bong of the Living Dead (2017)

This week, B-Movie Enema looks at an indie horror comedy that turned out to be so much better than it might had any right to be - Bong of the Living Dead.

Welcome back to B-Movie Enema. This week, we’re going to have a little more fun with a fairly decent little horror movie released through independent distributor Scream Time Releasing. I’m going to be looking at 2017’s Bong of the Living Dead. Bong of the Living Dead was directed by Max Groah. Groah has been around as a writer and director since 2010 when he made his first short film, Ringtone:…
