![]() ![]() My point is, it’s not knew or original BUT it still delivers some fun performances and the humor does work. Comedies centered around organized crime losing money for a teenager or twenty-something to find has been the center of comedies since the 70s or so and I’m sure there was some in the 60s that I’m not familiar with. Hell, if you are my age you may even compare it to the early 90s children’s comedy Blank Check and even Dumb and Dumber to some extent. The story for this one is one that has been done several times in comedies. The supporting cast is solid as well with several cast members delivering some seriously fun performances. He’s generic, especially for an 80s comedy, but it was a lot of fun. His character reminded me a lot of Grant Cramer’s character in Hardbodies. He’s arrogant, comical, and overflowing with personality which made the film as fun as it was. ![]() I really enjoyed Leigh McCloskey’s character even though he was like every male lead in the 80s. It was a lot of fun but it did feel rushed at times and not thought out. I could totally see myself renting this one if I saw it on the shelf at Dewey’s when I was younger. Leaving school on Friday before swinging by the local grocery store for some snacks and then hitting Dewey’s to grab a stack of movies and games to get me through the weekend. I grew up during the video store age and loved renting 80s and early 90s comedies at my local video store, Dewey’s Video. **Spoiler Alert**ĭirty Laundry is not going to be the title that many collectors will be wanting to add to their collections but fans of 80s cinema, specifically comedies, will want to check this one out. Soon a local drug pin is on the hunt for the young man and a female reporter when they discover he has the bag of cash instead of the bag of his dirty underwear. A man with a sack full of cash is doing a drug drop at the same time in the laundromat and the two bags get mixed up. **Spoiler Alert** The film follows a young man who visits his local laundromat where a big scene is made when a young couple starts fighting loudly. I want to thank MVD for sending this one over for me to review. I fucking love 80s cinema and this was one I had never seen before and I was extremely stoked to check it out. I jumped as quickly as I could to my email so I could request a copy. When MVD announced the release of the crime comedy Dirty Laundry as part of their Rewind Collection I was hooked. Some are horror titles that many of us were waiting for a boutique label to snag along with some long forgotten sci-fi flicks, some action cheeseballs, and the occasional comedy. ![]() I was all about this announcement and closely followed all their releases. The label was meant bring films that died on VHS to a more modern format. A few years back MVD announced that they would be releasing films on blu as part of their new line called the MVD Rewind Collection. ![]()
