Just watched this and it was pretty good. I'm just kind of confused by one thing, so spoiler, why did the pool cleaner character kill that girl with a rock at the end? It seemed out of character, but maybe I missed something..

I liked the slow builld up; it was suspenseful. But the ending wasn't quite right... broke the 80's feel and ultimately fell a little flat. Still, creepy. Tom Noonan's character is very unsettling.

I saw this a couple years ago and I didn't think it was that great while watching it. It's just weird how much I find myself referencing it. From the main character's hair to the realistic mutant baby- definitely leaves an impression.

Basically Mulholland Drive on acid? Creepier and even more confusing. Definitely needs a second viewing, but that won't be for some time....

such an interesting "docu-fantasia". very mesmerizing and visually pleasing... i esp. liked the family reenactments. & the sound of guy maddin's voice. i probably will never see anything like this again.

i think i love philip seymour hoffman a little too much. without him this movie would be nothing.
