Eraserhead
Jack Nance, Charlotte Stewart
Absurda/ Subversive, 2006
A shocking film you'll never be able to erase from your memory...
+ Eraserhead - short review behind a million others
+ "In Heaven Everything Is Fine."
Shortly after finishing `Eraserhead' I told my wife that I feel like a different person. The film, strange as it is, is one of the most incredibly complete films I have ever seen. It is truly a film about vision and mood and director David Lynch creates the perfect mood for his fantastic vision. ...

Get Over Yourselves Pompous Ones
+ My type of comedy
+ Weird Dark Comedy
What a bunch of pompous a*****. Get over yourselves and enjoy the movie. It was never meant to be a cinema classic. It's just good adult fun. I liked it in both formats. Aaah to be 22 again!

Dune (Extended Edition)
Francesca Annis, Leonardo Cimino
Universal Studios, 2006
A story too complex for a standard movie
+ David Lynch was right!?!
+ THE BEST.
The novel Dune is far too complex to be compressed into the standard 2 or 3 hour movie.
