Southland Tales


For better or worse, this is Richard Kelly's follow up to Donnie Darko. While it was plagued with re-cuts from huge runtimes, and was quickly swept in and out of theaters by a mainstream studio with no idea of how to market it, the trailer looks original, creative,  interesting, and risk taking.

  • Lost Highway


         One of the last David Lynch films to arrive on dvd. One of the lesser talked about, the Bill Pullman starrer hosts a Henry Rollins prison guard cameo, a bizarre circular story,  a frenetic jazz score, and one of the best soundtracks from the 90's.
