Did you like the new "Dune" films, but wish Paul Atreides held more TED talks in them? Would you be excited for a sitcom called "My Eight Dads" featuring a young Muad'Dib and his bevy of helpful mentors? We have the film for you! Join the Seths this week as they dig deep into the desert sand, staying wary of wormsign in this week's feautured film, David Lynch's controversial (mostly to Lynch) 1984 production of "Dune," starring... everyone! This absurdly star-studded cast includes early-career Kyle MacLachlan, Virgina Madsen and Sean Young, a pre-Trek Patrick Stewart, Dean Stockwell, José Ferrer, Jürgen Prochnow (guess who's back? back again?), Max Von Sydow, Sting and dozens more professional actors at the top of their game. So...what went wrong? Trying to fit a thousand-page, gloissary-festooned sprawling novel into a three-hour film? Content so disturbing it challenges even a contemporary threshhold for depravity? We'll figure it out together this week on The Cult Section!
