Plot
A young man finds a severed ear in a field and is drawn into a dark criminal world beneath a small town.
Sinekatalog’s take
Lynch's suburban nightmare finds a severed ear and descends into a world of sadism under the lawns. Disturbing, darkly comic and bold, with Dennis Hopper's terrifying Frank, it is Lynch at his most formative.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
