Eraserhead Blu Ray – Jack Nance, Jeanne Bates 

David Lynch’s first feature is a surrealist nightmare with its own rules of logic. Henry (John Nance) lives in a grimy tenement block set against a grey industrial landscape. When his girlfriend (Charlotte Stewart) becomes pregnant, she moves in and the couple try to look after their new baby: a slimy bundle of tissue whose screaming drives them to insanity.

Newly remastered by David Lynch himself for this 35th Anniversary release, his feature-film debut is a masterpiece of the macabre and grotesque. Eraserhead follows a sensitive young man as he struggles to cope with impending parenthood. Henry Spencer (Jack Nance) lives in a hopeless industrial landscape, lusting after the beautiful woman who lives in the apartment across the hall.Five years in the making, Eraserhead contains all of the trademark attributes of a Lynch film – haunting visuals, an ethereal score, unsettling sound design, and, most notably, a black sense of humour – creating a world onscreen that is exhilarating, terrifying, and truly unique.
