The "Dirty Sons of Pitches" are back from a month-long hiatus with an explanation, a lot of movies to dish about, and two films from 1978 to discuss, the schlocky double-feaure of Hitler clones with "The Boys From Brazil" and living killer ventriloquist dummies and a young Anthony Hopkins in "Magic."

Episode 391 includes:

-What's happened since we last recorded? Well, sit down for a bit. Also, the writer's strike is over. 

-Nate runs through seven movies he's seen in the last month, including "No One Will Save You" and the new "Mission: Impossible," while Ben details two obscure movies from the 1960s, one of which almost certainly was the inspiration for the "Mask" comic that later became the Jim Carrey movie. 

-By the Decade -- 1978 -- "The Boys From Brazil" / "Magic"

-Nate celebrates both movies as entertaing and well-executed schlock thrillers with wurprisingly strong if hammy acting, whil Ben quibbles over whether wither should have been less serious given their preposterous premises . 

While the "Dirty Sons of Pitches" gear up for their next recording, try a double helping of Ben's other podcast "Saturday Night Jive" with his brother George where the two watch and dissect in agaonizing detail movies from alums of "Saturday Night Live." This time the guys are discussing the cult 80s movie intended as a ripodd of "E.T.," sponsored by McDonalds no less, and carried into meme-ified life thanks to Paul Rudd's antics. It's a deeply strange movie worth listening about.

While the "Dirty Sons of Pitches" gear up for their next recording, try a double helping of Ben's other podcast "Saturday Night Jive" with his brother George where the two watch and dissect in agaonizing detail movies from alums of "Saturday Night Live." You would think they would have learned their Friedberg and Seltzer lesson from "Epic Movie" and yet here they are trying to make sense of the comedy stylings of the pair in another wretched 2000s spoof movie. Their pain is your gain, listeners.
