I just saw Eraserhaed

That movie was disturbed. I've never done drugs before, so I have to ask: is this movie like a bad trip? Also everyone needs to see this movie. I think it might use binaurals to get you really into it.

a 1970 cult classic, the only movie i have ever watched that left me in an altered state of conciousness very cool very weird..

Oh my goodness! David Lynch! One of my favorite directors of all time.

Anyone seen Mulholland Drive?

This has nothing to do with drugs. This is Lynch's expression of his many fears of having a child. It's pretty evident in the latter portions of the movie. (What if it doesn't come out right? What if I'm not a good parent?)

Actually none of you are right once it comes to analyzing this movie :p Lynch himself said that it's futile to analyze it as it's personal and no on has got it right so far.
He got the inspiration from a verse from the bible, but never told which one.

Actually... I just chose to leave it at face value, and just see it as a movie about lots of fetuses and a cute dinosaur-baby :p

Seriously, the baby was so cute!. But I almost cried when the guy cut the baby up like that :( It must have hurt alot. Poor fucking baby :(

David Lynch apparantly doesn,t do drugs but he does use a sugar overload (with coffee I think ) to help get his imagination into overdrive.

Lynch has discussed and written a book about Transcendental Meditation. I think the movie is disturbed, frankly, although I have enjoyed some of his other work. To me it seems like a disturbing vision of the future--a dystopia where chemicals cause freakish behavior and genetic mutation.

Eraserhead and Lost highway are my favorite works of lynch, brilliant stuff...

It's hard to find more of the same, but GOZU by takashi Miike comes close. The image of the boss having sex with a soup ladle sticking out of his ass is as unforgettable as the rest of the film
