My guess is its a film about how people deal with what 'they' believe to be mistakes. For me a baby is not a mistake, but to Henry, obviously it's a big problem, and how he deals with his problem is the essence of the film.
Yea, it's just an abstract horror piece, that gives you such an unsettling feeling when you watch it. It's basically a nightmare shot on film, so surreal, yet at some parts so incredibly frightening. As goenisse said, it's true interpretation is a piece on fear of fatherhood, just not told straight forwardly.
It's not for everyone, as lifer420 pointed out in a rather dull comment. But if you are a fan of film, then it's most certainly worth watching.
What is Jimmynorton1001 so upset about? No need to love my work, but when on earth did I get this reputation as a bitch? Yikes. Lighten up, man. Life is good and certainly too short to say cruel things about people you don't know.
gakman, you know nothing of film. The reason you want him to explain is because your a retard and cant figue nothing out.
And lynch was a painter and went to art school, so he is an artist and every director or musician is a artist because its expression in a medium form.

good movie but david lynch is a wanna be artist dousche bag. Look at me I am artsy I am gonna not explain my movies. It reminds me of the people who are "different" just to be different. Just explain the movie dousche.
I think is better that Lynch doesn't explain his movies because that it allows that I think my own story of the film, I don't like "Donnie Darko director's cut" because the director explains his movie 100%, it's better the first version for me.
I think is better that I can find the story of the movie by myself, it isn't so difficult, and I think that is what Lynch wants.
My comments were harsh and I apologize.What is the meaning? If every movie was up to the viewer to interpet the meaning it would be anarchy. The movie has to have a meaning. I think lynch is a friggin mastermind for never explaining the meaning. It keeps the cult following going. Forever and ever......... I just wish I could figure it out. No need to find the story by yourself. You did not write it. Every story only has one meaning. That is by the person who wrote it.
@Zooastur gakman doesnt like lynch cause hes a wannabe prick, hes not talkin about the goddamn movie, u fucktard. id rather NOT him explain, but lynch IS kindof a wannabe prick.
ok than explain to me Mr Rembrandt ...do you personaly know David or...you watched eraserhead and you wanna know what the movie is about ? mmm than tell me sir ..who is actually the douche here ??
Wow, Jimmynorton1001. What on earth caused you ro write such a scathing review of both my work and me? Needlesstosay, I disagree, and hope whatever rage caused you to type such a thing, evaporates and allows you to groove on with life in general. No need to think i'm talented. hey, that's your opinion. But a bitch? How on earth did you arrive at that conclusion? I wish you the best.
how can i watch the movie,not all this crap about the movie.

David Lynch, a true genius, its a very inspiring guy.
And i think all his movies say a lot of things, about a lot of things, its hard to explain.
I just love it.
