Eraserhead

eraserhead poster

De visionaire afstudeerfilm van David Lynch wordt beschouwd als ijkpunt voor al zijn werk, waarin hij zich uitsluitend door dromen laat leiden, en als ijkpunt voor de avant-gardecinema in de VS.

De bezorgde ouders uit de film krijgen te maken met een vogelachtige alien als kind, terwijl zwarte wormpjes uit de lucht vallen. Conventionele vertelstructuren en logica maken plaats voor vervreemding en Unheimlichkeit. De verwarde haardos van hoofdrolspeler Jack Nance nestelt zich in het geheugen.

Soylent Green

soylent green poster

De wereld is totaal overbevolkt en vervuild (in 2022 – we gaan het meemaken). De mensheid kan alleen nog gevoed worden met Soylent Green, een industrieel uit algen gefabriceerde drab. Door het broeikaseffect wil niks anders meer groeien en de wereldbevolking is aangewezen op Soylent Industries. De politie onderzoekt de moord onder verdachte omstandigheden van de CEO van Soylent Industries. SOYLENT GREEN is een typische jaren zeventig environmental rampenfilm met een flinke uithaal naar multinationals en met Charlton Heston in de hoofdrol. Crypto-klassieker of cultfilm?
