[QUOTE="niflheim:562131"]VoidExpression said:[QUOTE]niflheim said:[QUOTE]This movie sucked; not nearly as surreal as it was hyped up to be. I saw this last weekend and people were walking out of the theater midway through the film. I'm sure David Lynch's Inland Empire, and Jan Svankmajer's Lunacy will make up for its failure[/QUOTE] I can't wait to catch Lunacy, though I doubt how a Poe adaptation is going to come across. Otesanek and his Faust were interesting, but I'm having a hard time tracking down anything older. Not having seen it yet, I have mixed emotions about Inland Empire as friends with similar tastes have given me conflicting reviews. I missed it at the Brattle so I'll have to wait for a while now, but I just wished Lynch would get over his Laura Dern fascination, it's so fucking frustrating (speaking of which, Wild at Heart is playing at the Coolidge this weekend). Anyone expecting a surreal Del Toro has only themselves to blame. This movie is what he does best: dark, little kids, civil war Spain, and fantasy. It worked in Devils Backbone and it works here. There are a few minor flaws, but all in all it's very enjoyable! [/QUOTE] Newbury Comics usually carries Alice. The only Svankmajer film that seems difficult to find is Conspirators of Pleasure. Two separate DVD's were released as a collection of his short films, which unfortunately, are not complete works. I am kind of disappointed I missed out on Inland Empire at the Brattle. I read about it in the Phoenix, but it mentioned nothing about the appearance he was making at the theater; too bad. I just hope it makes up for Mulholland Dr which seemed almost like Lynch running out of good ideas. Speaking of the Phoenix, I read the review it gave Pan's Labyrinth and it mentioned that it was a pretty surreal and complex film. My only apprehension towards it was the fact that Del Toro was the guy who directed Hellboy, which I wasn't really into. The scene with the creature sitting idly, awaiting its victims to disturb it from its dormancy, was the only part I enjoyed. Unfortunately the rest of the film just didn't hold my interest. [/QUOTE]
