Is there a murder in the film?
Uh, no. That's not part of the story.
I don't think its possible. All I really remember about Inland Empire is that it gave me panic attacks and I couldn't figure out why. Then I watched it a second time and realized it was because it is crawling with a horrendous darkness like some Lovecraftian unnameable horror. Lynch somehow infused the movie with evil but never once showed his hand in doing so. And perhaps that is the meaning of it all, a psychic statement about the real Inland Empire, the blackest of black holes this country has. A drain hole for damned souls. Abandon Hope All Ye Who Here Enter.
why is this movie suddenly being talked about here?
It's one guy who asked whether he should watch it, and he now has.
Probably the new 2022 AI upscaled restoration
Lol it was shot on mini DV camera. What was Lynch thinking?
>Lol it was shot on mini DV camera. What was Lynch thinking?
he pocketed the production budget
the whole movie is a scam
>What was Lynch thinking?
Film stock is expensive.
He used DV to shoot WAY more footage. Who knows how many hours of footage there are.
Also you can shoot several takes without pausing.
There were HD cameras in 2005-2006.
Film is expensive but it wouldn't a be a problem on a Lynch movie. He wanted to shoot on DV for artistic reasons, not because of budget.
There's 75 minutes of deleted scenes bundled with the dvd
He saw what Doug Walker was doing and game respects game

All I remember is that Masumi Max has a hole between her vag and her anus. I
this movie is so fricking scary, it feels like you are being brainwashed in real time. i pretty much never get scared of movies but this was terrifying
"Who is she?"
>time travel
>multiverse.
Basically capeshit, you're right.
Lynch got way too far up his own ass. I'm sure it means something to him, which is great, but it's simply not made for anyone else.
It was based on a polish-gypsy folktale so shouldn't be too hard to figure out.
it's a three hour panic attack
DERN?
It's about a woman in trouble, hence the tagline.
>But what about--
A woman in trouble, moron. You miss the forest for the trees because you're a midwit. That's all.
Which woman?
The one on the poster
Everyone who was ever confused by a David Lynch project needs to be culled from society.
He makes a movie about an actress getting hunted down by a eurotrash hitman but because there's a scene with a cgi face to make it be more spooky or whatever, you frickers act like its Finnegan's Wake put to film.
Get fricked.
>he got JOYCED
It's explained by the nutty looking old women right at the start
Laura Dern's character is going to be in a cursed story
The story is based on true events that happened in eastern Europe in the old days involving an evil dude who enslaved girls
Anyone who gets involved in the story gets drawn into the curse
Laura Dern takes the role, and begins to re-enact the events of the curse in real life
BUT she is eventually able to free herself, beat the curse AND free all the other spirits who have been trapped by the curse over the years
The rabbits are spirits
The woman watching TV is a spirit
bravo Lynch!
The absolute state of lynchgays
it's a piece of shit that the director made up on the fly because he wanted to see if he could get away with using a 50 dollar vhs camera and not paying writers while pocketing the remainder of the budget.
love lynch.
but sometimes his experiments fail
I don't like this kind of thread, the things you've been saying. I think you should go now.
Yes. Me... I can't seem to remember if it's this thread, two threads from now or last thread.
This film is basically David Lynch's train of thought. It was made on the fly. It's good for what it is.
Also if you think that you "understand" Lynch this is like the final challenge.
Haven't seen More Things That Happened yet, is it worth it?
my most stressful movie watching experience. was on edge the entire time.
i think the prostitute in the motel room watching the tv is a ghost that was killed by the phantom and laura derne killing him puts the ghost to rest or somethign which is why she returns to her family
I remember being scared as well, it's probably the Lynch movie that most weirded me out and impacted me in this way.
Not sure if there's a literal explanation of what's going on but it was mostly about guilt I think, Laura Derns character was dealing with guilt most likely from cheating. I later found a youtube dude who had the exact interpretation as mine but the youtube comments kept calling him a chud
My favorite Lynch movie.
The good Lynch films are the ones it's possible to boil down to being about sort of Christo-Buddhist morality. Inland Empire is entertaining and beautiful at times but I don't think there's really much to understand there.
>it's possible to boil down to being about sort of Christo-Buddhist morality
Well I didn't say you should do that, they're worse if you simplify them. But the stuff is there.
it's like mulholland drive part 2. mulholland drive had a tragic ending so lynch tried his best to give it a happy ending for poor actresses/prostitutes in inland empire.
