Now it's been forever since I've seen this, I thought (maybe 20 years?), but having been impressed with Mulholland Drive I thought I'd watch it again.
Probably I didn't see it, since the only scene I remembered was the one where the cop is vaporized by the trunk, otherwise it was all as fresh as if I were seeing it brand new. And absolutely brilliant, a little tighter plot-wise than the typical David Lynch, full of irony and surreal humor. If anything survives the 80's it should probably be this...
