Favorite David Lynch Film - Blu-ray Forum

Which is your favorite??

SDon1969 · 03-05-2009, 08:30 PM

I love the creepy weirdness that is Eraserhead. I remember having to buy the DVD from David Lynch's website, it was the only way to get it at the time (that I know of).

FRAK · 03-05-2009, 08:36 PM

Wild at Heart!

(Back when Nicholas Cage was still acting like Nicholas Cage could.)

"This here jacket represents a symbol of my individuality, and my belief in personal freedom."

Infinitely quotable movie, if you're a bit "off" like I am.

Dune is one of my favorite movies. Although it did fall short of expectations as it had alot of potential.
Special effects looks very week now as well.

Would love a full remake of this movie with a hefty budget they could do alot with it.

Blue Velvet.

"Dont look at me..."

I think the Elephant Man is his best movie, but Blue Velvet is more rewatchable.

Inland Empire was a lot of work...but I couldnt look away.

How was that? It's the one Lynch film I haven't seen. I'll pick it up on blu if it ever comes out.

Belloche · 03-05-2009, 08:48 PM

I've never been a huge fan, but I'll go with Wild at Heart.

As far as weird goes, its # 2 behind Eraserhead. Really odd images and time jumps. Very wacked out, with no clear story or plot, which is why I keep watching, to try to make sense of it all. If You liked eraserhead, you will be OK.

Okay cool thanks, yes I like weird well enough. Just yesterday I ordered Southland Tales, due to the talk about how damn weird it is.

What about his daughter's movie Boxing Helena. Now there was a strange movie. David Lynch said that when he attended the premier for that movie he cried because it was so perfect.

Like father, like daughter I guess.

I just read about that movie and it sounds completely wacked out and sick. I put it in my Netflix Queue.

deckardp · 03-05-2009, 09:26 PM

Had to go with Lost Highway. Followed closely by Blue Velvet.

jkwest · 03-05-2009, 09:40 PM

Lost Highway here, also...

PH3AR · 03-05-2009, 09:47 PM

bingtau · 03-05-2009, 10:00 PM

Mullholland Drive for me! Naomi Watts and Laura Harring are beautiful!!!

Lost Highway is great.

Elephant Man and Straight Story are also exceptional.

Chris66 · 03-05-2009, 10:56 PM

Eraserhead followed by The Elephant Man.

wnicholas76 · 03-06-2009, 12:09 AM

The Elephant Man.

Anthony Hopkins and John Hurt both gave incredible performances! Can't wait for Paramount to announce it on Blu-ray.

wallendo · 03-06-2009, 03:51 AM

Mulholland Drive

I have no idea what really happens in this movie, but it is an enjoyable ride.

Pirate King · 03-06-2009, 01:45 PM

Dune. I cant help it, I am a sci fi junkie.
