Josh I couldn't stop laughing and saying "What the eff". I found out later it was a horror movie.I highly recommend this if you're in an altered state. I actually have no idea what the movie was about. I need to watch it again. I'm not sure if you are purposely watching it that it will have the same effect, though.This was years ago. I just happened to run across it here on IMDb so I figured I would comment about what a trip it was.My wife also always tries to tell people about it but we never even knew what it was called until now.

Scars_Remain This is a beautiful film from David Lynch, but unfortunately, not a lot of people are going to view it that way. The reason it's so stunning to me is because there is so much tension in just one continuous shot. It's definitely creepy but there are a lot more layers to it than just that. I don't think anyone ever knew that a video with people in bunny costumes and a laugh track could be so uncomfortable. It's one of the most ambiguous things I've ever seen but I'm OK with that, because it is so well done that in a way, I don't have to know what exactly is going on. It's a piece of art and it doesn't have to be anything more than that. Check this one out and I think you'll find that it is obviously Lynch behind the scenes!

nanofish-1 This work must represent Lynch's musings on his craft. We see a sitcom. Actors are garbed as rabbits that are dressed as people. That is, they are not rabbits, "per se"; they are only (badly) dressed as pantomime bunnies within the sitcom, set obviously on a stage. Like Shakespeare's play within a play, we see a sitcom in a video (in a movie, inside Inland Empire). It is presented as an ironic "meta-tale". If we try to follow the sitcom we are misled. The laugh track isn't tracking identifiable punch lines. The dialog is out of order and seemingly not in sync with the present action. There is a narcotic dreaminess about watching the actors in the video playing characters in a sitcom. We lose context. What exactly are we witnessing? The meaning of the sitcom is not the meaning of the video, and therein lies the disturbing ambiguity of the unfolding story. The medium is not the message. Lynch knows his audience interprets him through the tropes of movie-making. He knows he must express his ideas within the boundaries of its form, subject to the expectations of his audience, who are likely to impose their own prejudices. The rabbits exist in a created exigency outside of real experience. They are motivated by their own ephemeral mythos, informed to action only for this short performance we are witnessing. The author feeds them soliloquy, to bridge the distance between himself and the audience, but with an absurd result. Will we ever know what they are thinking? No, because they are not thinking in reality, they are acting out roles in a disordered sitcom. This being said: The sitcom is about patricide. The mother waits for him, but Suzie and Jack have killed the father figure. It is an unspeakable crime that masks another. Dear dad may have had designs on young Suzie. Of course, it explains the dread and shame. I cannot prove it conclusively. On first viewing I was entirely riveted by it. On second viewing I was analyzing the heck out of it. On third viewing it struck me how absurd the whole thing was and I started to laugh at it. I began to think, this is what Beatrix Potters' recurring nightmare looks like.If you know who Luis Buñuel is, then you probably already own a bootleg copy of this video. If you can walk through a modern art exhibit without giggling then this movie is most likely for you. If Jackson Pollack reminds you of the oil stains on your driveway, then you probably want to steer clear.Lynch removes the burden of narrative from the story and fragments dialog out-of-sequence so you are free to get popcorn during any phase of the showing without fear of missing something.SPOILER ALERT!!: Nothing really happens. Well, a woman screams. And no, I have no idea what that means.

mario_c "Rabbits" is bizarre! In fact "Rabbits" is VERY bizarre! This short film from David Lynch is very weird in many aspects. From the peculiar rabbit suits to the absurd and weird laugh tracks everything is strange in this movie! It has always one scenario, a kind of stage scenario portraying a living room. The characters enter and they leave the scenario… every time they do it we hear applauses from an unseen audience… And many times, when the characters say something – that is NOT funny – we hear the laugh tracks, which are completely absurd, because they have no connection (at least a logical one...) to what have been said! The applauses and the laugh tracks give a nonsensical humor to the movie; but also a touch of oddness and irrationality… The dialogs are also strange; they are disconnected, senseless and repetitive. In fact, the entire movie is repetitive, as an odd nightmare that doesn't end! I think that "rabbits" is an excellent short movie from Lynch, which explores one more time the boundaries of nonsense. It is mysterious, it is bizarre and it creates an odd ambiance, almost scary at parts (and here the soundtrack helps a lot, because it's really spooky)… But I think it's a bit long! I know the movie is a compilation of 9 short episodes, which were a kind of a "series" made to the David Lynch's website. However, if you watch it just in one time, as I did, the all 50 minutes for once, it turns too long! I think it would work better if it was a short movie with about 20-25 minutes, because otherwise it turns overextended, repetitive and a bit boring. Maybe because it's always in the same scenario or maybe because it doesn't develops too much. I don't know, I just think it would be better if it only had 20/25 minutes. It would be enough to create the same impact and it wouldn't be boring. Probably there's a reason to that extension and to the repetitive scenes (I think it's very possible since it was something which came out from Lynch's mind), but even so it turns out a bit monotonous.Anyway, it's another mysterious, dark and weird "dream" from the master of surrealism!
