Editorial Reviews

Amazon.co.uk Review
Pandora couldn't resist opening the forbidden box containing all the delusions of mankind, and let's just say in Mulholland Drive David Lynch indulges a similar impulse. Employing a familiar film noir atmosphere to unravel, as he coyly puts it, "a love story in the city of dreams", Lynch establishes a foreboding but playful narrative in the film's first half before subsuming all of Los Angeles and its corrupt ambitions into his voyeuristic universe of desire. --Fionn Meade

David Lynch's Lost Highway is one of the most puzzled-over movies of the 1990s. But there are no straight answers. This film is "about" a lot of things: obsession, the impossible notion of owning a partner, why tailgating is wrong. Beyond that, it's about nothing more than enjoying just how sensually delicious everything looks and sounds on Lynch's Highway. --Paul Tonks

Eraserhead is a horror movie unlike any other. A fuzzy-haired young man, trapped in his apartment, has a series of nightmarish experiences, among which is a scene in which his head is used to make the rubbers that fit on the ends of pencils. --Nikki Disney

Customer Reviews

visionary perceptions5
These three films are probably the best examples of lynch's intuitively formed cinema. Through his love of the medium and obvious concerns about humanity, lynch has gradually honed a vision that not only deals with age old spiritual matters, but reshapes them for the postmodern world. With obvious debts to Kafka, Bergman, Hitchcock and even Shakespeare apparent in this collection, lynch still comes across as unique. Even if you manage to decipher the meanings hidden under layers of symbolism, you'll find that you knew them already. This is due to the attention given to mood and feel of image and sound used in a way that simulates sensory perception. These three films are truely cinematic experiences that internally reasess the viewers connection to the world. Absurd, hillarious, disturbing, entertaining, insightful, erotic and utterly superb.

Great Films but beware !!! No Subtitles...5
There is no subtitles for the films in the box. Beware..

Superb films, great value5
No doubt only going to be a purchase for Lynch fans already converted to his work, but also a great introduction for those perhaps not to aware of his genius?

All three films contained here have to be watched more than once, MD especially. Not light, airy fairy Hollywood fare in the slightest, but films that will make you THINK as you watch.

Do not underestimate these films! They are not to be treated lightly with a box of popcorn on your lap. They are works of art which, thankfully, are great value in this box set!

Additional extras are on the films that are not contained on the R1 versions of the discs too.
