A film by David Lynch circa 1977. It is absolutely, without question, the strangest most bizarre movie I have ever seen.

And yet, I could not simply turn it off.

David Lynch is a demented genius of a film maker.

Well, you got half of that right.

The only movie that has ever caused me to walk out of a theater before the end. I think I didn't even make it to the halfway point. I like some of Lynch's other movies as well as Twin Peaks.

Try Wickerman with Nicholas Cage. I hope he killed his agent after that cluster of a movie.

As bad as that Nick Cage flick was, check out the original Wickerman.

Both of which absolutely pale in comparison to the level of weirdity of Eraserhead.

I watched that at the Tivoli theater in St. Louis back around 1981. I was heavily self-medicated that night and, from what I recall, it was one of the strangest experiences of my youth. I can't remember more than a couple of scenes, though. I used to have the poster on my dorm room wall but that was more for effect than anything. Not sure I would watch it again.
