It's a mind bender, and Naomie Watts breakthrough movie. I'm going to do a mini David Lynch film festival over here - Blue Velvet, Lost Highway and Mulholland Drive. Keep your Prozac handy. All three are in my " Mental Illness Awareness Month " film collection.

I get Mulholland Dr. & Mulholland Falls confused, heh. I have seen the former but a long time ago, and never seen the latter. Now I want so see the "Falls" one too.

You need to add Eraserhead!

You need to add Eraserhead!

I've thought about doing that! 

[SRW1000]

I've thought about doing that!

It's the most Lynchian of the films on your list, and definitely not everyone's cup of tea.

That said, it can also be the most striking and unsettling, with themes that can either resonate or fall flat on viewers.

Knowing the path that movie went through makes it all the more remarkable.

Maybe consider it as a midnight feature?

Eraserhead is stranger than Blue Velvet?

[SRW1000]

Eraserhead is stranger than Blue Velvet?

You've never seen it?

Well, then, you're in for an experience.  Yes, stranger that Blue Velvet.

Don't read about it, just go into it cold.  Fair to say it's a polarizing movie, but it has all the hallmarks of a Lynch film.
