This is one of those films that stays in your mind for days, maybe months. It can be described as haunting, disturbing, scary, hard to understand. It's typical Lynch with a macabre atmosphere surrounding it.
The plot is hard to understand at first but then it gets very interesting and you get to understand the metaphors and the principal character's mental condition.
There are plenty of horror elements such as B.O.B. and his freaky appearances (love the "fire walk with me" sequence, brrrr). There are highly sensual moments, exceptional cop investigation, and the usual WTF moments like the nightmare (it has even been parodied by "The Simpsons"): The ending is absolutely mind blowing and I rank it very high amongst those endings that leave you cold.
The score by Angelo Baladametti is wonderful! The Direction is as always perfect. Lynch creates his own world and we are free to roam around it.
Give the opportunity to this groundbreaking film. I wonder if the highly coveted "Black Swan" was inspired by this little gem.
score 10/10
