Two great milestones for Lynch: his debut masterpiece and his most recent masterpiece. Eraserhead is the truest representation of a dream (or nightmare) I’ve ever seen put to film. Lynch’s debut was one of the ultimate midnight cult films of its time, and the Criterion package also includes all of his early short films.

Mulholland Dr. is Lynch at his best, combining Blue Velvet and Twin Peaks into a hypnotic mystery that only gets better (and makes sense) with multiple viewings.
