Contest: The X-Files, Dusted Off (Film Experience Blog)

Wed, 02 Jul 2008 14:09:00 GMT

I'm sure I've told this story before but the oddest moment I've ever had entering a movie theater was in 1984 when I walked into David Lynch's adaptation of Dune and the usher passed me, my parents and my brother a one page glossary of terms we should all read before the movie began. Assigned reading @ the movies. Say what ?!? The X-Files (1993-2002) in my life Sometimes I embrace televised...

... named Texas. But wait––if this doesn’t sound like a setup straight from the twisted mind of David Lynch I don’t know what does. Indeed, what’s most striking about the erotically charged scene that follows is how closely the psychological power dynamics of Schroeder’s Maitresse parallel the infamous “Bobby Peru seduces Lula” scene from Wild at Heart . In both cases no actual sex takes...

A Movie A Day: Quint on Hopkins in THE GOOD FATHER (1985) If I ever let myself get angry I could do some real damage. (Ain't it Cool News)

Tue, 01 Jul 2008 05:36:03 GMT

Wrong. This movie is actually a little creepy. Anthony Hopkins plays a recently divorced man who is filled with anger. He’s scary when he’s angry. He seems to hate his ex-wife and resents his young son, but we don’t know why. He even has visions (really creepy David Lynch-like visions) where his boy is suffocating under a plastic sheet while Hopkins himself presses his face against another...

... society that exists even in the far future. Big shoes to fill for a film producer. Yet in 1984 David Lynch wrote and directed a movie version of Dune , rescuing it from development hell and plunging it into bad-adaptation hell. Reviews panned the movie - Roger Ebert deemed it “the worst movie of the year,” and others expressed similar disgust. Despite the movie’s 40-million-dollar...

... one 20-minute sequence of sustained, freaked-out, demented terror that ranks alongside the best of David Lynch for its ability to ratchet up an atmosphere of sheer dread. I'm still not quite sure what I make of the film as a whole, but it's a real oddity and it's going to be fascinating to see what Radich does next.It's too bad that such ambition wasn't present in some of the questionable...

... out of convention, Mr. Jacobs is decisively a video maker here. Even more than “Inland Empire,” David Lynch’s encyclopedic survey of low-fi video poetics, “Razzle Dazzle” makes no bones about dancing on the grave of celluloid, fully embracing the textures, tones and rhythms of an electronic, as opposed to mechanical, motion picture art. Mr. Jacobs has pointedly subtitled his work...

At least I can’t find any other rational explanation. Because...
