[miguenzo]

@1prettyricky: Actually, it was Tool that brought me here.

[gamezonic]

[loganbamf2]

the grifter brought me here no joke

[rguimond]

The internets brought you here.

[josedewish2011]

actually stanley kubrick brought me here

[DaRkNess1400]

what just happened :)

[Henrique70darthSith]

Is this that guy from Beackman's World ???

[saqibk1]

What's so special about this film, beside it's special?

[wickedfeylady]

A movie you really can't describe. You need to see it.

[WeebleWarbler]

It's pretentious nonsense just like modern art.

[IpswichTilliDie1]

@WeebleWarbler Yes! Someone that finally agrees with me!

[TitaniousGrubbs]

@WeebleWarbler Doesn't get it =/= nonsense.

[JockeyRocket]

YOUR MOTHER BROUGHT ME HERE

[andrenygma]

Kramer Brought you here

[travelingcarpenter]

@andrenygma Lol



[TheCGIMaster]

Im gonna grow my hair like that.

[dancemartindance1]

if you brought yourself here

[madahad9]

This is an open question to all serious fans of Eraserhead. What is your interpretation of the film. I have two interpretations and will share them with anyone who responds . I don't want to taint thier take. I don't think there is a wrong answer. David Lynch has stated that no one has come up with the right interpretation. This is what makes Eraserhead great is the multi interpretational aspect of it.

[ajc31sacount]

@madahad9 I think it is about the consequences of sex. I have a few other theories but that is my best one. Also i don't know if you've noticed this but in the kitchen of Mrs and Mr X, there is two stoves while their clock only has one hand.

[madahad9]

@ajc31sacount You notice a lot of details with each viewing. Here are my two interpretations. The obvious one is that this is nightmare of a man totally unprepared for marriage and child and turns into these horrible characters. The second is that this is the nightmare of a man who has just killed his wife and child and in this dream state has made monsters of them to diminish his guilt for what he had done. Dreams are filled with a lot incongruous details that clutter the mind.

[piromaniac9999]

@madahad9 His fear of having a child?

Supposedly,the movie was coming out when his wife was pregnant.

[madahad9]

@piromaniac9999 It was made about the time his daughter Jennifer was born, yes. Not just the fear of having a child but the fear of a domesicated life. I dreams we distort reality so that I might look monstrous which in my interpretation Henry is doing. All those internal anxieties are now playing out for him. In dreams those analytic faculties that tell us that this is only a dream have been severed and this is our temporary reality regardless how absurd it is.

[Suiciniv]

The only conclusion (if it's possible) we can do at the end of this movie is to question "Why".

[Serpmusic]

0:37 Dr.Steve Brule

[JudahhF]

@Serpmusic same shit i said when watching lmfao

[SmoothHourglass]

If this trailer had been made nowadays, every 3 seconds in the trailer you'd hear a big BWOOOOOOOOOM type of noise.

[NordenSide]

I brought myself here

[Zodist]

Like this flim?Then check out Begotten.

[Mitsomitsos]

just like my hair :P

[2112movingpictures]

I think he looks like Kramer off Signfeld

[THX11003]

This film truly confused the shit out of me.

[eSeGUER0]

boringest trailer ever

[landedward86]

A Petticoat Lobotomy- Short Film

[ratblues]

Where is the Youtube Poop for this movie?

[MiamiKOfan]

I saw the hair and I thought "Hey, is this that Brad Pitt little short?"

And, yes it is.

[phantasm1004]

I watched this movie at an indie theater. It was very, very, VERY odd....yet very intriguing.

[deathlok2099]

you love or hate it i dont get it????

[TheVillainOfThisTale]

The actor who plays Henry looks a bit like John C. Reilly with a crazy hairdo.

[sstaub643]

@TheVillainOfThisTale

Actually, I think he looks a lot more like Tim Robbins

[johnbarry1965]

Once seen never forgotten. A film that challenges and usurps our senses.

[TheBozanna]

Stupid film. I prefer films about my Pope John Paul II

[minedarea]

@TheBozanna That's a pretty good example of the either-or fallacy. Thanks.

[Cryptorchild92]

The Spiderwick chronicles made absolutely no sense to me, And I've watched Eraserhead.... upside down....... while trippin on acid......

[AngelusDlion]

I love art...

I love how you can not make one lick of sense and still be deemed "culturally significant"

[21h040349160]

@AngelusDlion This movie is culturally significant because it's well-made and can be interpreted in many ways. It makes sence if you find a point to count from. I hate to sound like a hipster, but it's my opinion. I found loads of sence there

[1prettyricky]

brad pitt brought you here

[welcometoconspiracy]

@1prettyricky How did you know xD?

[Suiciniv]

@1prettyricky the correct phrase is: Brad Pitt brought you here...one more time.

[saucey78]

@1prettyricky Knew about this long before brad pitt...but just saw the Brad Pitt thing..LOL wtf is he doing....still a god for even referencing eraserhead

[ruttercat]

@1prettyricky David Lynch brought you here

[Zodist]

@ruttercat Laura Palmer brought me here

[iamjd32]

@ruttercat like all the way man.

[16JAM77]

@1prettyricky

no, david lynch did.

[iamthetank44]

@1prettyricky nope

[thewordthatpierces]

@1prettyricky Nope.

[Suiciniv]

@1prettyricky It's curious that the character interpreted by Brad does not resume the personality of Lynch's one .Honestly.

[HcxOlli]

Guess what, I´m watching this movie for the 3rd time now. 2nd time high. Still get it differently every time. Damn.

[StarWarsFanatic99]

O.O

whoa, this movie look super creepy!! but cool XD

[narayanmimi]

One of the greatest psychological horrors of all time ladies and gentlemen.

[CarellaRoss]

i posted the whole movie - check my channel

[cooperfranco]

@CarellaRoss Thank you so much! And thanks for posting Faster Pussycat, Kill Kill! as well.

[JacobMorrisNinetyTwo]

@CarellaRoss Buying it works too.

[iggypopdavidbowie68]

@CarellaRoss

/watch?v=wKiIroiCvZ0

How ironic

[speedview725]

Can anyone explain this movie to me in short ?

[MrConorghilarducci]

@speedview725 it's better experienced than explained. simply put, it's about Lynch's fear of becoming a parent. Lynch also has a fear of becoming apparent.

[ALFEYGA]

this movie says so much without saying nothing at all. it inspired a reimagining of the song In Heaven (posted on my channel). great movie

[Steelidea]

The scariest and most original ever!

[JacobMorrisNinetyTwo]

So playful.....

[Zachtheawesome42]

@JacobMorrisNinetyTwo Interesting. What do you mean playful?

[JacobMorrisNinetyTwo]

@Zachtheawesome42 Mighty Boosh.

[GuanoTheGamer]

they should do a remake

[Contakum]

Director David Lynch is a warped genius.

[SPunjabCA]

this movie is badass!

[SnafuFrank]

Does anybody know the name of the song?

[pootylytoodled]

@mxfnc you are absolytely correct. Holy Mountain scared me it was so weird.

[Badbones78]

This film is so fucking disturbing...

[VikyCelty]

No matter how many times I've seen this film before...'cause every time I do I am fascinated by the simplicity of its plane horror as if for the first time...Lynch, what a teacher of sick minds!!

[annonimuz2]

this is where eraserheads originated

[SickGrin25]

the ending to this movie is eerily uplifting...

[jegki0]

yeah it was boring, but somehow I really love it.

[wwwknivestowncom]

I saw this film in college at the university cinema. The movies were $2 for students and for this movie the deal was if you stayed through the whole thing you got your $2 back. I have never had such an awful feeling leaving a movie as I did that night. I wish I hadn't got my $2 back. A truly grotesque and disturbing movie that is not fun. A bad trip.

[84mrjoker]

If you are confused by the movie i have written the meanings of imagery. ***THE FOLLOWING CONTAINS SPOILERS*** Worm = sin. The Baby = The product of sin. Eraser = Memories. The lady in the radiator = Death. The man in the planet = God. : Electricity and electrical lighting = The presence of good. Darkness = The presence of evil.. there are many other images which I will let you figure out on your own. MESSAGE ME IF YOU WANT THE WHOLE IMAGERY SUMMARY.

[1HalfASSreViewer]

@84mrjoker having an imagery summary is not good thing. sure, it helps with clearing things up for people who quote on quote "don't get it", but are you really getting an experience thats anymore rewarding that way? you don't have to get anything, just let the atmosphere, tone, sounds, and imagery wash over you and transport you away from reality, feel whatever you feel, and make of it what you'd like. Eraserhead's subjectiveness is one of the things that makes it so interesting

[84mrjoker]

@1HalfASSreViewer i understand what you mean but i thought it would be helpful for the people who dont get this movie therefore not like it Eg: some of the users below, and with my summary maybe if they watch the film again knowing what each abstract thing meant Maybe they would enjoy the movie a bit more. but i understand what you mean though.

[1HalfASSreViewer]

@84mrjoker unless you're David Lynch, no one "gets it". that's the whole point. so many works of art are not expository and come with abstraction. but is the artist going to lay out with words what every single thing means? no, and if he or she does, they're not acknowledging that abstraction and surrealism doesn't have to completely make sense. this is exactly what stopped Inception from being a great movie and only being good for me. Eraserhead is a movie meant to make you to feel, not think

[84mrjoker]

@84mrjoker fuck off thats what it means, thats the imagery he was trying to show... now jog on

[madahad9]

Nothing was ever the same after watching Eraserhead for the first time. A film that still amazes me after all these years and needs to be rereleased into theaters.

[guitargold77]

i can say its a bad film, itd be more intersting to watch leaves turn to compost

[SamusDrake]

Being a huge DUNE fan, this was the next Lynch film I viewed...and it was really fucked up. I got about half-way through and gave up on it. Not to say its a bad film, but I could not get my head round it whatsoever.

[ShaunberryiPod]

@ConchX I agree with every word you just said-except I was neither shocked nor terrified-I was transported into a nightmarish tiotally surreal world-it was like watching someone elses dream-one of those movies which blanks out the rest of the world for a while and stays with you forever-which is why I looked for it today when I first saw it age 17. It burrows deep down into your self consciousness and stays there. Genius!

[Onerom4728]

This looks soo silent hilysh especially the music

[Jauckor]

Creappy, creepy or whatever it spells but this movie

is scary as hell.

[monk22yrs]

hard to believe this bw, boring, junk was a midnight movie for pot heads!

(and i have it on dvd, cheap; got it from a korean, in korea, seller on ebay. ok as a curio, but that's it)

[shadycharacter220]

hahaha ive been really looking forward to seeing this movie ( i bought it today) and i was worried about checking out the trailer first, as it might give away some of the vital plot or something (some trailers do that) but i couldnt resist. thank god it didnt give much away. infact, it didnt give anything away. i am left confused, and intrigued

[iconocast]

thanx for makeing the most disturbim movei i ahve ever seen . mofo scared my brain

[Metallica2509]

that movie is really hard to understand..

especially when ur high.

[AdolescenteMutante]

Alonso ♥ :B

[bigddagenius]

the guy in the end was the inspiration for kid from kid n play's flattop

[ConchX]

This is a movie everyone should see at least once in their life. If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend, I won't lie, the first time I saw it, I didn't know whether to be just utterly shocked or terrified.

It's a genius movie and you won't see anything like it these days!

[wukongzzz]

weirdest shit I have ever seen !!!!!!!!

[SHACOBES123]

i feel like i need to watch this now that i've seen the trailer haha

[Tool78Maynard]

aztecthe....lol you just got socially destroyed facebook boy haha priceless!

[1969atam]

I remember watching it in June 1995 and after 10 mins disliked it. I stuck it out for the whole movie and it had an effect because after being sucked into the monochrome bleak, dark world it made me realize one thing. My life was great! If you ever feel down watch it and then you'll feel great! Thanks Mr. Lynch!

[casestudyification]

@1969atam  Great point!!!

[fede018]

is that actor still alive and working? i've never see him again...

[MikeIdy6000]

@fede018 John/Jack Nance is no longer with us. He appeared in a number of David Lynch's projects.

[honkdalonk]

@fede018 No, that guy died (Jack Nance).

[honkdalonk]

@fede018 But he played small roles in other David Lynch movies.

[SludgeViking]

trip face an watch ERASER-HEAD!

[MrConorghilarducci]

the feeling I get watching this film is so strangely nostalgic, it feels like I've seen it before in a past life. it also has something to do with the lady in the radiator reminding me of Marilyn Monroe and the moon face from A Trip to the Moon. but the way Lynch just spills his subconscious on the screen is baffling, it speaks directly to the subconscious, embedding its imagery there, exposing these fears that are latent in all of us in such a truly bizarre and nightmarish way.

[elalis]

@MrConorghilarducci

I'm sorry but I find this movie to be completely rubbish.

Compared to lets say "Twin Peaks" or "Mullholland drive", This movie has nothing on it.

Even for its time, he had the right concepts, but the executions and randomness of the scenes

were rather puzzling. I was always waiting for a good scene to come on but I found myself truly dissapointed,

[b0mbcityrocker]

@elalis you are a fucking idiot, you failed to understand the movie. its not "randomness", all of it is symbolic and if you understand it, it tells a full story if you can read the subtext of the movie. i cant explain the whole movie in this comment box but for example. the chicken diner scene when the chicken spurt out the dark liquid its representing the issue of mary's pregnancy being spoken of at the table, the radiator lady was his suicidal thoughts, she never existed, but in his mind

[GoongalaGoongala]

@b0mbcityrocker To be fair, good films, as with good music and literature can often allow the viewer to come away from the experience with their own "understanding" of what it meant. Its very subjective in that sense. Simply because you understood the film in one way does not mean that someone else can't interpret it in another. Both views can be equally valid. And the film DOES have a very "random" feel to it even though its not simply randomness. This film takes repeat viewings.

[b0mbcityrocker]

@GoongalaGoongala yes, the film is very subjective, however i do think certain symbols in the movie do have a singular meaning, and some are more universal. and i agree that it has a randomness to it, but in the factual sense of things this film wasn't put together "randomly". watch the start of the movie where the man in the planet pulls the levers(representing fate) and watch the story of the movie be told in the intro, now i'd like to hear someone say THAT was random, lol. lynch>god

[Kemonokami]

@MrConorghilarducci

Wholly agreed. It's not something to just watch when you're high on some dangerous narcotic or for a cheap thrill. What's also great is how it seems to connect with you on such a profoundly basic level. Also, it truly does feel like I've seen that baby before the movie....and yet I haven't at all.

[onlychild86]

One man's art is another man's trash.

[ariel12955]

@onlychild86 Please, please explain. I'm slow.

[AztecThe]

this is not a fucking good film.. it sucked.. it sucked dick. people like to think that bad movies are good just because theyre trippy or a mind fuck.. getta life it sucked

[voodooshavo666]

@AztecThe People like you who say suck/sucked are just cunts, it's an artistic film, go update ya facebook status you parasite

[AdviserMoppet]

@voodooshavo666 I haven't seen the film so I can't make a judgment yet but I don't like how calling a film artistic automatically makes it good somehow. But this film looks bizarre so I'll search for it on Netflix.

[DeHawx]

So this is what Kramer did before he met Jerry

[Miafado]

@ everyone I agree, When the movie ended I was still waiting for the trailer to end and the real movie to begin. The trailer didn't make sense and the movie didn't make sense, so the trailer is the whole movie. Erase this sh** from my head pls........... what a waste of 125 minutes I should have stopt at the trailer but I just was in denial !!!

[TheDreamhause]

so guys really is this that scary??

i mean should i watch it or i'll shit my pants??:P:P

(it doesn't look that scary though)

i'm 15 btw..:P:P

[stingme88x]

@TheDreamhause doesn't matter how old you are. Watch it, but i suggest you prepare your self mentally... (its a bit of a mind fuck) but its a good film & i hope u appreciate it (: .Enjoy.

[TheDreamhause]

@stingme88x

hahaha yep i'm just saying it because i don't wanna end up psycho..:P:P:P:P

thanks anyway :D:D

[stingme88x]

@TheDreamhause lol no you'll be fine. There are worse films out there TRUST ME!!

[TheDreamhause]

@stingme88x :)

[Serbianmate45]

My god, this movie is a mindfuck

[BigFatFailureTurtle]

Watched this movie only one time...It was like a car crash: I wanted to change the channel, but I was so weirded out that I had to see what happened next....Pretty sure I said 'what the fuck' about 100 times while watching this movie. Strangest film I have ever seen...can't really top this one in terms of weirdness.

[mxfnc]

@BigFatFailureTurtle watch the holy mountain

[stingme88x]

@mxfnc oh gosh that's a trip... it's like a bad acid trip sober.. i duno words can't really describe

[TheBookWorm1718]

Anybody here see Tiny Toon Adventures? Babs: La la la! I'm Eraserhead! La la la! *Pee Wee Herman laugh* La la la la la!

[ronin6401]

if you've ever wondered what it was like to do PCP without actually doing it, then watch this movie.

[T4rDKnoT666fun]

@ronin6401, I dropped 2 tabs of acid, and took 720mg of dxm and watched this movie, changed my whole perception on what reality is.

[KarlisKristaps]

@T4rDKnoT666fun Woah. And conclusions? What is reality in your opinion? PM me if there`s too much to write in a comment.

[xathanaric]

Looks like Messiah Marcolin if he had short hair.

[FreightlinerFred]

0:33 now that's a quiff

[igankyoumaybe]

I saw this movie a while ago, i consider myself crazy about movies, but god, is this movie bad, from the plot to the weird mindfuck alien scenes : |

[goodvibesallround]

@igankyoumaybe i thought lost highway was worse, lol.

[tichergeorge]

@igankyoumaybe are you retarded little girl?its called a horror movie its supost to be nothing but scary shit it needs no plot or storyline if it scared or mindfucked you then it did its job

[rockerkid958]

CHECK OUT MY VIDEO of the song Jimmy by Tool being synced up with the end of Eraserhead

[nezneon]

Is Eraserhead one of those movies that can be enjoyed by the general public, or is it just for intelligent individuals with a very particular taste in movies?

[JKTube]

@AOCRkid: I like Eraserhead AND Spongebob. I wouldn't watch them back to back.

Eraserhead is one of the Big Six of Midnight Movies, along with Night of the Living Dead (1968), The Harder They Come, El Topo, Pink Flamingos and The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Go watch the documentary Midnight Movies: From the Margins to the Mainstream.

[ecudak123]

This trailer just about sums it up. lol

[RuckasNucka1100]

I was so fucking scared that a screamer was going to come up or something i almost pissed myself......actually i did piss myself

[Onerom4728]

This fells very silent hillish

[sgteltorcho]

Edward Scissorhands, Salad Fingers, Eraserhead... All the same amount of creepiness.

[goodvibesallround]

@sgteltorcho I'm off to caress this rusty kettle...

[iEnteredTheVoid]

Kubrick said that this was his favorite movie.

[crypticBhann]

Oh this looks interesting, i'm a fan of begotten and the perticular bizzar horror it brang, i saw The exercist when i was like 8, and i saw stephen king's "IT" when i was 4 and many other desterbing movies when i was under age so this should be a very interesting peice of cake.

[kingcahoj]

@crypticBhann

yu iz gud spellorz

[alexhouse72]

this is the type of film eustace from courage the cowardly dog would be watching on the tv hahaha

[ariel12955]

@alexhouse72 This comment deserves an award.
