Eraserhead (1977)
8/10
Not a movie to be interpreted...

I'll keep this review short..

The first film of David Lynch is his most bizarre. Eraserhead is simply an enactment of your worst nightmare on the screen. So, before watching this movie, keep this in your mind. Sit through the flick and enjoy the atmosphere, the weirdness of characters, the incidents and the raw bizarreness of Lynch's imagination. But DO NOT try to interpret it. Because you can interpret it in a hundred different ways.

Lynch tells us that the art of cinema, like a fine painting, can be as surreal and abstract as Eraserhead.

Finally, a piece of warning-this movie induces nightmares in you. Take this for granted.. :P
