Eraserhead

(1978)

The David Lynch "cult classic"... I honestly don't understand why half of these supposed "cult classics" are named so. I guess there are just some pretty lame-ass cults in the world today. To top it off, it's a David Lynch movie. Don't get me wrong, I like to be thrown on roller coaster rides of madness and confusion, but if ANYONE says they understand a David Lynch movie... THEY'RE LYING!!!!! Anyway, ERASERHEAD is about Henry (ERASERHEAD), a "clever" printer who goes to visit his babe Mary and her insane family one night. But Henry gets shafted up the ass by the news every guy hates... yep, Mary is pregnant... well, it's actually worse... it seems Mary already had the kid prematurely. As my friend Kah would say, "Poor poor Henry". After Henry and Mary are wed, they get to have their little turtle-boy-thing... well, whatever the Hell it is, they get to have it now that they're married. After some marital problems and more trippy scenes than an aspirin bottles full of gel tabs, Henry gets his head cut off and used to make erasers... Uhmmmm, I think the turtle thing is God... I guess... I have no other explanation... fucking Lynch and his God damned art films!

Sequels: I hope not
