I caught this film last year. Dug it quite a bit. Not a huge fan of Lynch, was qutie annoyed with Mullholland Drive, but I did like this one.
DVD comes out later this summer in a two disc set with about 90 minutes of deleted materials. 90 or 60, I can't remember.

Waiting to rent this. The Elephant Man is superb! Such an underrated film! I like Dune. Lynch didn't! A lot of film critics dis Dune but I think it is OK! As for Twin Peaks. What a TV series! Incredible.
I am glad I saw this in the cinema as I dont think I would sit through it at home on DVD. It tested the patience but definitely succeeded in being unnerving and a new experience.
Not sure about the validity of cheddars spoilers, I heard it was all to do with the actress's preparation and the vulnerability that stems from it. But to be honest I think everyonewill have their own opinion! Thats what Lynch does......

How do you mean? Like, they're not really spoilers? Then yes I agree, but it's a shock and left my friend and I speachless when it happened (as well as the entire theatre.)

I meant as in not sure if they were correct. I have heard a couple of different theories on the meaning behind the film - but hadnt heard your one before. The one I have heard most, including insinuations from david Lynch, is about the actress' experience learning the new material.
But as I said, everyone will have their own take on this film.
BTW - What is the 'it' you referred to happening that left you speechless? I dont remember there being a definitive big reveal.

Did the bunnies creep anyone else out? I don't know why; but I was curled up in my seat scratching the s**t out of the dude sitting next to me. Luckily; he was my roommate and tolerated it.
I'm not usually like that at the movies, even for horror films. But this flick made me uncomfortable at times. Scared, even.

It's not a reveal, it's just a random, surprising moment that I didn't want to spoil for people. Spoiler Do the Loco-Motion! Not a spoiler, but infinitely better if you don't know it's coming. It's just so out there, that you have no reaction until later.
If you meant what I said about it being a "fantasy", I was referring to another film (MD). But having re-watched that one this evening, I myself am unsure if it's correct. Time-line. Must rewatch again, I need the DVD, VHS takes too damn long.
The Bunnies didn't really freak me out. It was reminiscent of the stop-motion/live action Polish(?) Alice in Wonderland film. It was awkward in a disturbing sense (if that made any), but it wasn't creeped out.
I'm actually seeing this again tomorrow (although I guess to most readers it's today, and me too, it being 2AM here...) with a different friend (who watched MD with me this evening, I doubt he'll ever be the same) and I can't wait!

The bunnies did kinda freak me out as well.
You were right Cheddar, I did get mixed up between your description of MD and Inland Empire. My mistake. I havent seen MD since I saw it in the cinema. I saw it twice in the cinema - Once with the list of clues and once without. They didnt help! Still thought it was a great film though.

The movie never even came close to playing in my area! I will have to buy it off Amazon because my mom & pop video store will not carry it
Played here for three weeks, as well as a Lynch retrospective showcasing all of his films. I only got to see Blue Velvet and Wild At Heart, but I doubt I'll ever forget the experience.
Well I live in Waveland, MS (KATRINA HIT US IN 2005) so we don't even have a movie house. So were desperate for movies out here.
That really sucks something fierce, I'm sorry.

I'm so happy about this!
