Nosferatu, 1922, by Murnau?

...or...

Nosferatu, The Vampyr, 1979, Werner Herzog?

Two incredible films, if you haven't seen them both, you really must! And if so, which do you prefer?

David Lynch's Inland Empire... Masterpiece of a disturbing surrealistic mind fuck? I certainly think so...
Fuck Lynch(except for twin peaks) :p

I'm not a huge Lynch fan (going on entire body of work), but I do adore a couple of his films. Inland Empire and Blue Velvet are masterpieces in my opinion.

Mulholland Drive is good, but overrated. Eraserhead just creeps me out too much, I can't handle that film. Wild at Heart is pretty much bleh. Straight Story, Elephant Man, Dune... the less said, the better.

He's made two brilliant films imo. And his artwork, and music collaborations are pretty good.

Give Lost Highway a try if you haven't. That and Inland Empire are the two movies I really like from him. Wild at Heart was good aswell imo.

I like weird shit but Lynch always makes me feel like he does weird shit just for the sake of being weird.

I much prefer Kubrick's or Tarkovsky's weird.

Changing the subject; So many movies to watch, most of them are 3 hours long almost. /Cinephile problems

:agree:

What are you thinking of watching next?

I might watch a few Norwegian Films. I've been meaning to watch Joachim Trier's Oslo, August 31, and then Jen Liens latest Sons Of Norway. Liens' previous film The Bothersome Man was great.

Let's see... Well, i'm yet to re watch more Tarkovsky and Kubrick's stuff.

I have Barry Lyndon, Andrei Rublev, The Mirror, This Russian (?) epic Mongol and one that i've wanted to watch for a while: Boyhood.
