The Shining is one of my all time favorite movies. I recently read that Stanley Kubrick was influenced by Eraserhead (by David Lynch) and had his production crew watch it prior to filming The Shining.
For whatever reason I never saw Eraserhead, but I put it on my watch list after reading about its impact of TS.
I watched it last night. I don't know if I've ever watched a more bizarre and unique movie. I kept saying to myself - what the..
It was kind of like watching a bad dream, but not of the Nightmare on Elm Street kind.
Any thoughts?
On the other hand, I can't get through 20 minutes of his version of Dune.
You will see me two more times if you do bad - ( New Window )
Link - ( New Window )
Freakish.
I've never felt so uncomfortable in a movie.
Great film.
+1, except I think his Dune is an absolute blast
I saw Blue Velvet many moons ago.
Heineken! F*ck that shit!
I'll have to check out Wild at Heart and Mulholland Dr.
I saw it in theaters when it was first released. It's certainly a cult classic.
"Wild at Heart" is a great Lynch movie. Laura Dean and Nic Cage are fantastic and it has all the classic whacky David Lynch characters.
"This is a snakeskin jacket! And for me it's a symbol of my individuality, and my belief in personal freedom."
Check out "The grandmother" .... Lynch is a disturbed individual.
I loved "Blue Velvet" and "Wild at Heart" ..though.
It was a very long time ago for me. My memory is that I didn't understand or enjoy watching it.
