It's like he took our nightmares and put it on film.

Eraserhead.

After months of researching and searching i have finally obtained a copy of David Lynch's Eraserhead.

I knew what to expect from it but the final result was beyond my expectations.

The story is your average guy named Henry has been invited to his girlfriends house and informed that his girlfriend Mary x has had a baby. The baby is deformed. At that point things go from eerie, creepy to skin-crawling. The line of story and dream like scenes get blurred. Things start to build up until it's strange and frankly rather disturbing end.

David Lynch is possibly one of the best directors ever.

His sense of style is amazing and he captures the idea of nightmare/dream like weirdness perfectly.

And even though people wont like films with almost no dialogue you can almost ignore it in this film.

Overall you should see it, it's a little known classic.
