Part 8

What the heck. When you're a director of such bizarre content as David Lynch is, you can take your nightmares and throw them out there. I have contended that he does that. Waking up in the middle of the night, he jots down the strains of his mystic violin and reproduces them on a script upon awakening. Other than the beginning, where bad- Cooper is shot and then mended by wraiths, we are dealing in pure surrealism. We have some of the consummate fears produced: nuclear war, zombies, insects crawling into our mouths, dark shadowy figures in the woods, a moon shining through clouds, a house in the middle of nowhere. It's as if he wanted to find a way to get this all out without a whole new movie. Count me wrong if this somehow becomes connected with the town of Twin Peaks. The big thing for me is that when it comes to a traditional intertwining of events, forget it. Because this is unlike anything we've seen before, we may as well absorb it and enjoy it---or not!

First half was pretty good , finding out things is a pleasant feeling indeed.The second half felt like an episode of twilight zone ,(the original one) & am happy beyond words for it.The eerie high pitched sounds can't be explained in simple writing,when the bomb exploded ,the audio sent sudden shots of electricity through my veins.. Goosebumps , people.Goosebumps.



In TV , this is the best example of pure surrealism;And anybody saying it was bad , well let me put my thought, ' A director tried his own imagination in his own tv show after 25 years ', Its a win.Its a win of art in its purest form cause i know today's dimwit netflix directors who can come up with one seasons plot won't even explain how terror/evil first arrived on their limited web show& their next season takes 2 more years to shoot and even after taking such a long time ,their stories are not convincing anymore. Its true and you know it. The giant started reminding me of Dr. Oppenheimer from season 3 ep1 ,we saw him wearing a suit and it was also a blacknwhite scene. Pure genius Mr lynch.I can rewatch it thousands of time.

Even if I personally have my own reservations about this special hour, I must say this daring outing deserves an applause just for being this artsy brave.

How can you describe Episode 8? It might be pure David Lynch but let us not forget Mark Frost in all of this.

It all begins conventionally enough. Evil Cooper has escaped from prison and joins up with Ray but they both double cross each other.

Ray shoots Evil Cooper and before finishing him off we see strange entities emerging from the woods who surround Evil Cooper. Are they going to devour him or fix him? It seems these strange beings bring him back to life.

We then go to the Bang Bang bar where the Nine Inch Nails play one of their smaller gigs.

After that we enter a surreal wordless sequence which is exposition David Lynch style. The first atomic bomb being tested in White Sands, New Mexico. The explosion has led to the manifestation of Bob as well as other equal creatures.

We then see the Giant with a female, there are strange sounds and we see a golden bubble being created with an image of Laura Palmer.

As we go to 1956 we see gasoline soaked woodsmen asking random strangers for a light and the are possessed of pure evil as they spread message through the airwaves.

I have little idea what it all means but it all adds up to being oddly visually and sonically unnerving as well as invigorating and disturbing.

this is by far the most precious and beautiful moment in TV history. also seriously disturbing and frightening, but what a pleasure to watch.

because cinema moves so much money, it is the most corrupted of arts (it is on the verge of extinction). people like Lynch are slowly disappearing. may this series be a beacon of salvation. lets not allow the dream and the power of imagination to fade away. lets not allow our balls to shrink in front of computer screens, comfort and impatience. starry skies, old dusty taverns, writing notes to strangers, love, pain, bathing in the sea at night and diving into those who open up their heads and hearts to us. the miracle of being alive.

the most profound thank you, mr Lynch.
