Episode 65: Eraserhead (1977)

I recently revisited Eraserhead (1977), a film I didn’t really connect with when I first tried it years ago. Watching it again now, it feels less like a story and more like an experience — pure atmosphere, anxiety, and sound.

In this episode of Dave’s Movie Diary, I talk through what it felt like going back to it, how strange and immersive it still is, and where it sits in relation to Lynch’s later films like Blue Velvet and Twin Peaks.
