DIGITAL CINEMA PRESENTATION
A dream of dark and troubling things... Released in 1977, the same year as Star Wars, David Lynch's timeless debut feature is a descent into the world of Henry Spencer (Jack Nance), a young man whose girlfriend is pregnant. Soon, Henry is the sole caretaker of the bandage-swathed baby, forever known as the Eraserhead Baby, a bizarre, almost rabbit-like creature that looks like no special effect before or since. Shot in gorgeous black-and-white (in a new digital restoration from Janus), Eraserhead is like no other film you've ever seen, a surreal industrial world that is nonetheless very human. "A film where the organic is defeated by the inorganic." --Time
