  • "Rapports d'un homme et d'un horrible foetus."
  • "A nightmarish collage of images which blends the grotesque and the absurd, the deeply disturbing and the darkly humorous. Henry is the nerdish central character who lives in a squalid apartment with a strange girl and their monstrous baby. The extraordinary special effects create an eerie, dream-like world with a logic all its own."
  • "Eraserhead is David Lynch's first full-length feature film and was completed over a 5 year period between 1972 and 1976. His post-apocalyptic, dystopian, nightmare vision has amazed and disturbed audiences for over 30 years. In 2000 Lynch underwent the painstaking process of cleaning, restoring and remastered the film frame-by-frame in order to 'obtain the best image and sound quality possible'. The result brings a brand new dimension to a 'cult-classic' that will continue to astonish audiences and dumbfound critics."

  • "Bizarre and startling film in which special effects create an eerie dream-like world with a logic all its own. Henry is the nerdish central character who shares a dark, squalid apartment with an equally strange girl who gives birth to a horrific monster baby.

  • ""Is it a nightmare or an actual view of a post-apocalyptic world? Set in an industrial town in which giant machines are constantly working, spewing smoke, and making noise that is inescapable, Henry Spencer lives in a building that, like all the others, appears to be abandoned. The lights flicker on and off, he has bowls of water in his dresser drawers, and for his only diversion he watches and listens to the Lady in the Radiator sing about finding happiness in heaven. Henry has a girlfriend, Mary X, who has frequent spastic fits. Mary gives birth to Henry's child, a frightening looking mutant, which leads to the injection of all sorts of sexual imagery into the depressive and chaotic mix"--Imdb.com."@en
