  • A Place Both Wonderful and Strange: Remembering David Lynch

    A Place Both Wonderful and Strange: Remembering David Lynch
    Jan 20 2025

    This week we are pausing our release schedule to pay tribute to the godfather of our podcast, the late, great David Lynch.

    Usually on our show, we talk about movie scenes. But for this dedication, we've selected a handful of clips of Lynch–the man, not his movies–to discuss. It's our hope that by sharing his voice, and connecting over his philosophy, all of us can find some comfort in the tragedy of his passing.

    We have a channel dedicated to Lynch in our Discord if you're looking to connect with us and other listeners about the legendary filmmaker who inspired this podcast: https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx

    Next week, we'll return to our regularly scheduled programming. In the meantime, keep your eye on the donut.

Listeners, we tried our best to find some answers for you.Next week, it’s the most-requested film in Eye of the Duck history, Denis Villeneuve’s ARRIVAL.

    It's James Gunn week on the pod, and we're (finally) talking about the DC Studio head and his origins as a down-and-dirty genre guy.

    Between the mouth-stuffing slugs and Michael Rooker's lovably demented performance as a human meat volcano, SLITHER has a little bit of everything. And we're all for it.

    Next week, we take a trip down to Johannesburg for our first Neill Blomkamp picture, DISTRICT 9. Join the conversation on Eye of the Discord https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx.
