Eraserhead by David Lynch


Lonely, gloomy, filthy, desolate, repulsive, scary, depressed landscape and outlook marks the beginning shots of Eraserhead, leaving one to wonder what might emerge in the process of going forward in this movie. Clearly at the very onset, Kafka-ism pours out in the backdrop of ‘Metamorphosis’.


‘Liking’ this movie can get worrisome, since people might suggest a visit to the psychiatrist would be a welcome step.

Beware – you might be termed a nut for liking this ‘weird’ movie
