An oddball collection of short films from the master of oddity, David Lynch, this release provides a compelling look at some of Lynch's rarely seen shorter works, including "The Grandmother," a story about a boy who grows a grandmother as an alternative to his abusive parents; "The Amputee," a film about an amputee attempting to write a letter; and "The Alphabet," an eerie animation from Lynch's student days. Covering films from the 1960s to the 1990s, this release goes inside the peculiar sensibility and aesthetics of one of our most idiosyncratic filmmakers. [More]

Reviews for The Short Films of David Lynch
These six unnervingly surreal slices may vary in their quality and impact, but they are well nigh unmissable for anyone devoted to Lynch's special brand of cherry pie.
