Blue Velvet

A gruesome discovery of a human ear leads a young Kyle MacLachlan on a dangerous journey into the sinister underworld that exists in his all-American hometown. From there the simple setup blooms into the ultimate story of good and evil, an erotically-charged, intensely disturbing exploration of the dark underbelly of the soul. One of the most shattering cinematic experiences of the ‘80s, Blue Velvet acts as a waking nightmare, a mesmerizing spiritual precursor to Twin Peaks, and showcases what a visionary auteur like David Lynch could do while making one of the wildest, most far-out films ever to be nominated for multiple Golden Globe Awards.
