Another trip down the LOST HIGHWAY
Add comment July 9th, 2009
Scott Tobias’ New Cult Canon series over at the Onion AV Club continues today with one of David Lynch’s less-heralded efforts, 1997’s LOST HIGHWAY.
I’ve seen LOST HIGHWAY three times, all on the big screen (including one mind-bending night at the Rockford’s late, lamented Storefront Cinema where I screened it twice in a row). I’ve always liked it in an odd way, falling under its nightmarish/hypnotic spell, but like most critics, I though Lynch’s 2000 MULHOLLAND DR. took a similar concept — the movie switches gears midway through and becomes a whole other story — in a more successful direction. But after reading Tobias’ review — and watching those ultra-creepy clips — I think I’ll dig LOST HIGHWAY out of my self-burned DVD collection and give it another spin. If nothing else, it’ll give me another glimpse of Robert Blake at his most ominous… well, onscreen anyway.
Here’s the trailer….
