Movie Reviews of Eraserhead (Import, All Regions)
Movie Review: A review for a friend. Part One.
Summary: 5 Stars
Well, you see what happened was I met a new friend on-line and he noticed that I review things. His name is The Curmudgeon and I guess he is big over-seas. I think. Anyways, he reccommended a few things for me to review. I sent a member of my web-site team up to Video One to get the DVD and a pizza for me. I'm waiting right now. To use my time efficiently, I'm going to write another review somewhere else while I wait. I'll see you over at the Conan section of Amazon.com.
Okay, I'm back and so is the movie. Er.....movieS I guess....Alright, there's a small problem. He wasn't sure which movie to get.....Says there were 2 different ones he was looking at. Uh-oh. The first one is pretty non-descript, and the other one is an Arnold Shwartsaneger movie. I have no way to get ahold of The Curmudgeon right now. The names ARE kind of similar...I guess it would be easy to confuse them.....Hmmm. I have an idea. Sounds like it's time for the first ever.....DUAL-REVIEW! The Arnold one is on DVD so I'm having these guys play it on a lap-top computer. Sadly enough, he says the other one was only available on Video-Tape. I'll put that one on the V.C.R. they have.
Okay, computer on the left, TV (with V.C.R.) on the right. Alright, they're still setting up the DVD on the lap-top, so I started the V.C.R.......So far, so good. A monster-worm just flew out of a guy's mouth. I'm game.....Hmmmm....Black and White. Wonder if it will change to color like the movie with the girl, and the dog, and the lion, and the wizard, and.....Okay, the DVD is starting on my LEFT side...Ok, well THAT one is in color so it makes up for the RIGHT side's lack of a few minutes have passed. The LEFT side has some mild action stuff....the RIGHT side though, is pretty interesting. The main guy in it is walking out-side and WHOOPS! His foot goes right in a mud-puddle. Kind of reminds me of the Three Stooges by the way it looks. But without any hitting.
Okay....after a while a LOT of action happened on the LEFT, with a really big gun. It's really hard to stop watching. But my eyes are drawn to the RIGHT side now. The guy is at a house and no one is talking to him and he seems uncomfortable. I can totally relate to this. I feel like that sometimes. The old lady looks dead. Wow, the dad at the table seems dangerously enthusiastic. Nobody really talks much and it's akward. Kind of like dinner at my place LOL. The LEFT side is in a boring part. The plot seems IMPOSSIBLE to follow. You know, it's kind of weird. I'm watching the RIGHT side more than the action-move on the LEFT! Okay, WOW! Look what's for dinner at the weird house. AMAZING. Let me watch for a few minutes.
Okay, wow! How do I catch you guys up? Ummm, the LEFT side had a really crazy scene where Arnold is in a gunfight on an airplane and he jumps out and catches a parachute! And the plot is completely lost on me now. But the RIGHT side has blown my mind. There is a mutant-alien thing. But it doesn't look like either a puppet or a muppet. It looks...real. This is crazy. Give me a little while....
Now the LEFT side has alligators! And another wild shoot-out, and EVERYTHING! The RIGHT side is a cloud-nightmare on earth. There is weird little worms and a chipmunk lady that sings, and the alien is out of control and just SCREAMING. I feel like this guy sometimes when I'm around the house with Morris (my dog) and I try to leave and he goes crazy and barks and barks until I come back. Okay, the LEFT side of the movie is...well, I guess you could call it "pure-action". If there really is a plot now, it does'nt matter. Arnold has a really big action-gun now. For all I know this is a Terminator sequel. Or prequel. Maybe. HOLY CRAP! On the RIGHT side, the guy that reminds me of me (I think his name might even be the same as mine) has completely been engulfed by his Cloud-Nightmare! He fought the alien, and if I tried to expain what happened next you wouldn't belive me. Some bratty little kid just stole his head and sold it to a pencil-factory. SEE! You don't believe me! I'm not even sure I believe it. WHAT!? I'm being bombarded by both movies at the SAME TIME!! I look to the LEFT, I see a HUGE gunfight with a HUGE gun in a boat-yard! I look RIGHT and I'm absolutely terrified by the chipmunk lady on the screen! Don't touch her! No! AAAAAAAA! Wow... the credits are playing now (RIGHT side only) with some herky-jerky organ music. It compiments the action on the LEFT side, strangely enough. Okay, LEFT side is done with action and almost over. Okay, it's over. That was incredibly rare.
Jeez, you guys simply HAVE to try this. I'm not kidding. See what I did there? I didn't know which movie he wanted me to review, so in an amazing display of innovation, I have created a new reviewing medium. The Dual-Review style. It can serve many purposes. First off, it can enhance two mediocre movies to make a sort of super-movie. Secondly, it can save time on reviewing. I never imagined I could increase my productivity by DOUBLE! And third off, the reader (you guys) can benefit from the review because it's something they just can't get anywhere else. THIS is why I'm the reviewer of the future. I fascinate myself sometimes. Partial credit can be given to my friend, since he reccommended one of these movies, but I'm still not sure which one. Later.

Summary of Eraserhead (Import, All Regions)
- IMPORT FROM SOUTH KOREA - LANGUAGE: ENGLISH - OPTIONAL SUBTITLES: KOREAN - NTSC ALL REGIONS - Is it a nightmare or an actual view of a post-apocalyptic world? Set in an industrial town in which giant machines are constantly working, spewing smoke, and making noise that is inescapable, Henry Spencer lives in a building that, like all the others, appears to be abandoned. The lights flicker on and off, he has bowls of water in his dresser drawers, and for his only diversion he watches and listens to the Lady in the Radiator sing about finding happiness in heaven. Henry has a girlfriend, Mary X, who has frequent spastic fits. Mary gives birth to Henry's child, a frightening looking mutant, which leads to the injection of all sorts of sexual imagery into the depressive and chaotic mix.Similar DVD Movies
