Dune, David Lynch’s adaptation of Frank Herbert’s novel, is available for streaming on Amazon. Which is how my wife and I saw it for the first time early Thursday morning. It is an impressive work of camp. Rather than be a simply bad movie in the vein of Manos: The Hands of Fate or The Room, in which the sheer incompetence steadily moves the work from joke to joke on the audience, Dune is that rare movie which is great and awful almost simultaneously. Rather than bore you with flimsy adjectives, consider only this, a brief recap of the climactic scene, in which Yakima native and UW grad Kyle MacLachlan, um achieves his destiny.
