Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me
October 12th, 2006
The INLAND EMPIRE-induced Lynch kick continues. Fire Walk with Me is the much darker prequel to the TV show and ends with Laura Palmer’s death. In retrospect, you can see Lynch groping toward equally untethered and disturbing but more rewarding and complete work like Mulholland Dr. The best scene is set to an endlessly repeating blues riff in a red and blue-strobing underground club, where Laura and Donner meet the Great Went.

Yes - that is the best part.
Hey, I double checked and can’t find my copy of Eraserhead. And I have a pretty strong recollection of lending it to you. It woulda just been in a CD case, with Repsher’s handwriting on the disc. If you really can’t find it, you should Netflix it. It is pretty frickin’ awesome.

I’ve got the netflix dvd in my hand. Don’t remember seeing the Repsher disc ever.
