It’s about the fears of parenthood. It’s that simple. None of Lynch’s stuff is that hard to understand it’s just very visual storytelling.

What the fuck were the stage parts about? With the dancing deformed chick.

She's stomping on sperm

>a movie about an irresponsible, young, freshly baked father having nightmares about becoming a parent and being with a woman he doesn't really love, thrown in with some expressionist scenes.
Wow that was hard.
not him, the one where she stomps on sperm? i watched that movie long ago so i don't remember all the details.
it was him fantasizing about the child never being conceived, and hating the fact that he knocked his girl up accidentally. iirc she also tells him some shit that equals with having safe sex.
inland empire and the lost highway are a way bigger mindfuck than eraserhead.

Thanks, I did not even realize those are supposed to be sperm...now it makes sense.

>and the voice of eric roberts
how does he keep getting away with it?

Lynch said that it’s not his interpretation. Some people say that it’s about the fear made from a murder. Hence the violence he sees in the window. The child is the violent act made by those two people. He kills the child to free himself from it.

But it's also a fact that the movie was made around the time when lynch became a father himself, and his daughter had club-feet. also he was living in some shitty area in philadelphia where violence and fucked up people were common. some of the movie has to be based on this.

Do you understand how a black hole works? Does that stop you from enjoying black hole concepts and depictions?

>Lynch said that it’s not his interpretation
Lynch says a lot of things, mostly about how his films mean nothing at all. While I mostly agree with this (it is particularly true for Lynch that his films don't mean anything to HIM), I think also its funny how often filmmakers are totally wrong about their own movies.

>wrong about their own movies
Protip: there is no one universal "right" answer to any art piece and the meaning is subjective to every individual.

I'm pretty sure Lynch has said that any interpretation is correct because he wants you to think and he stays vague about his personal interpretation so that you don't cloud your thoughts.

I also believe Lynch said Eraser Head was his most religious movie.

Could you watch fwwm without watching the original series? And yes, I know that doing it would spoil plenty of things from the show. I'm asking technically: is it watchable as a standalone movie?

Clearly you can't even fathom the complexity of what Dunston or the hotel represents. Watch it again and pay attention to the symbolism. After watching video essay after video essay on Dunston Checks In, I know understand

Totally. It's a great film

You can, but youll appreciate it a lot more if you watch the series first...

100% saw it coming but still chuckled
