Mid-career Lynch at his surrealist best, with a film that questions identity and contains possibly one of the creepiest characters in modern cinema.
Saxophonist Fred Madison starts receiving mysterious VHS tapes of him and his wife in their home and is tortured by the idea that his wife is having an affair. After being suddenly convicted of her murder, he inexplicably disappears and is replaced by a young mechanic leading a different life.
