 :D gonna give a second view tonight. Did the director pass on lately or writer ?  It's a Pink Floyd or Frank Zappa comparison.  Holy moly.   :D shitty Canadian Netflix even had it !

Director David Lynch -- he of other truely bizarro and interesting films like Eraserhead, Blue Velvet, Wild at Heart -- is still alive.  Dunno about the writer.

If you haven't seen it yet check out Wild at Heart.  Somewhat similar and almost equally as mindblowing --   especially the Bobby Peru character played by Willem Dafoe.

PS:  In addition to directing it, David Lynch also wrote the screenplay, based on a book.

I consider Wild At Heart my favorite/most coherent of Lynch's post-Blue Velvet movies (aside from A Straight Story which doesn't count cause it's, well, a straight story).

The rest are just too darn weird.

I absolutely hated Eraserhead.  Saw it in the late 70s as part of the midnight flix series at my college theater.

Dumb and boooooooooor-ing!
