Description

If you’ve never taken a trip into the mind of director David Lynch, this is the place to start. At once beautiful, horrifying, erotic and surreal, this 1986 controversial masterpiece is about the evils that can exist in even the most perfect of places. When college student Jeffrey Beaumont (Kyle MacLachlan) investigates a mystery in his small town, he unwittingly opens the door to an underworld of murder, sex, kidnapping and blackmail. Dennis Hopper gives one of the big screen’s most unforgettable performances as Frank Booth, a twisted drug sniffing villain with (how does one put it delicately?) “mommy issues.” Voted “one of the greatest films of all time” by Entertainment Weekly.

    If the kind people at MGM & Apple could work it out among themselves to make this film available to purchase in HD, I suspect I might be happy enough to contemplate writing a thank-you note.
  • Classic!

    This movie is a masterpiece, just a shame we cannot purchase it here. One for the collection for sure.

    I have this in blu ray and thought I would rate it. I'm a big David Lynch fan and this is my favourite of his (equalled only by the excellent twin peaks tv show). This is a fantastic film with great performances especially by Dennis Hopper in his disturbing portrayal of the psychotic Frank Booth Kyle Maclachlan who is superb as the young, naive Jeffrey Beaumont (his greatest role as Special Agent Dale Cooper yet to come). It is of course brilliantly and beautifully directed by Lynch who also wrote the genius script. In a nutshell this must be seen by anyone with even a passing interest in film.
  • This has 4* at the time of writing this...
