Summary: Look at my knees!
Review: The most purely deranged film ever made, meaning it's probably the best film ever made. I don't own a DVD player, but I'd buy one specifically for this movie. God, I haven't seen it in years and I miss it so. Watching the baby is repulsive and addictive. The chicken scene made me laugh in a different way. It changed the sound of my laugh. I need to see the chicken scene so that I can feel young again.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Dear David Lynch, please release this film on DVD and video!
Review: This is THE experimental/cult film by which all others are measured. No other film comes close to capturing depression and loneliness like it and it has been out of print on video for over a decade. I never understand why trashy hollywood films stay available and classics go out of print. I work in a mailorder business and ERASERHEAD is the number one requested film.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Gotta love those damn chickens
Review: I originally borrowed this movie from a friend of mine. Since then I can not get that damn chicken scene out of my head. You need to see it to believe it. By far one of the best black & white indy flicks I have ever seen, this movie combines psychologically disturbing images with a great song about heaven. Last time I saw any movie that could even compare to Eraserhead, I vomitted. If Eraserhead teachers you anything serious, it teaches you to not eat ANYTHING while watching a good movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best Use Of Film, Ever
Review: Eraserhead is the greatest film ever made. It displays the best use of the cinematic medium thus far.

Eraserhead manages to move that which exists only on the inside directly into a form that we can all experience. David Lynch managed to achieve this incredible, super-human feat only once. And only once has it been achieved in the whole of cinema history. Watching this film gives you the overwhelming feeling that you are witnessing one of man's greatest artistic achievements. And that's exactly what this is - one of the greatest human creations of all time.

This is not a throw-away film. You must watch it in the dark, at night, with the lights off, on your own and with no distractions whatsoever. Only then will you be able to give the film the attention it demands of you.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The GREATEST movie ever made .....
Review: Ask the critics "What's the greatest movie ever made?" and you'll probably get the same old tired response "Citizen Kane, of course!". Ask any true movie fan and there is no question "Eraserhead". This is the movie that has never been equaled for disturbing psychological imagery. This is the movie that made Kentucky Fried Chicken something to flap your wings about. Who can ever forget Grannie as she tossed her salad with cigarette ashes? This is THE greatest movie of all time.

Too bad I wore out my only copy...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Unbelievable
Review: This is a masterpiece. I first saw this on Christmas day when I was about 15 and I've never felt the same since. The imagery in the movie haunts, shakes, and engages you and you are never sure why. The story was a mystery to me as a young kid but hearing this was about Lynch's fear of fatherhood brings it all home. Nevertheless I was still attracted to this film without even understanding what it was about. It is that wonderful combination of horrific and funny. The world he creates seems like something that cannot exist. There is no context for it. If you are looking for something to toy with your senses at least rent this movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A macarbe masterpiece
Review: You feel like you have been transported to the darker edge of your subconscious, a world of shadows and lurking threats. This is perhaps the most bizarre movie of all time. It's as if an Edward Gorey sketch came to Life. Brilliant, dark and brilliant...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Please Mr. Lynch, Please!
Review: There are boot-leg copies being sold for absurd amounts--The Japanese Laser Disk is being sold at on-line auctions for up to $100.00 each. Please Mr. Lynch, won't you listen to the cries of an old Dying woman and release this film on DVD so we can really see it at home! Please, before it's too late.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: please rerelease this movie!
Review: "Eraserhead" is one of those films that stands out in the minds of those who have seen it, regardless of whether or not they enjoyed it. This is one of David Lynch's greatest accomplishments as a director. And it's a shame that it's not more readily available. Dark, horrific imagery lies upon one of the most thematically solid stories Lynch has ever conceived. It stands along side "Taxi Driver" as being one of the best depictions of male isolation ever translated into a movie. Unlike "Taxi Driver" however, "Eraserhead" is extremely self consious and accentuated with a feeling of guilt and severe sexual anxiety.

Of all the movies I wish would be rereleased, "Eraserhead" ranks at number 1. It is a must see for everyone, just so they can form an opinion about this critically controversial film.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My ex-girlfriend looked just like the Lady in the Radiator
Review: This film would be ideal for the following types of people: - people who have numb arms - people who are impotent - people who have long hair - people who are named 'x' - people who eat dancing quails - people who live inside planets - people who find mutated sperm sticking out of their girlfriends' backs - people who are tired of work - people who are attracted to their neighbors - people who collect pencils - people who dance - people who like girls with bad skin - people who play organ - people who believe in heaven

If you are one of those... you should find this film and watch it. If only Amazon.com would get it. otherwise, do the illegal thing and find a bootleg.... oh, the horror.
