In this week’s episode, the Cinema Duces Tecum team makes a catastrophic error in judgment: they watch Freddy Got Fingered. Of their own volition. On purpose.
What unfolds is less a film discussion and more a four-way group therapy session hosted inside a flaming porta-potty. Tom Green’s infamous 2001 comedy—which critics called everything from “offensive” to “evidence of a cultural collapse”—is dissected, defended, and occasionally prosecuted in a court of law that exists only in our minds.
What follows is not a review. It's a forensic autopsy.
Among the wreckage:
A debate on whether horse masturbation is “farming, Daddy”, or a criminal act?
A heated disagreement over whether licking an open skateboarding wound counts as first aid or just playground science
And of course: did Freddy ever actually get fingered, or was that just emotional projection from a very broken man?
In classic Cinema Duces Tecum fashion, things end in mock trial: Eric prosecutes, Peter defends, and we all suffer.
Freddy may or may not have gotten fingered. But the rest of us? We’ve definitely been touched.
Next Episode: A Jean-Claude Van Damme double feature so muscular it should be illegal: Double Impact and Death Warrant.
