Jan Svankmajer's Dancing Meat

[Magus]

I've known the name and reputation but I've never seen Jan Svankmajer's work. After watching the trailer for Lunacy...

My Intermedia Art/Computer Animation instructor is a Jan Svankmajer nut, so we got to see a lot of his stuff.

Some of his psychopathic creations are on youtube.

The only thing by him that I own is a VHS copy of a film called Alice, which is a really weird version of Alice in Wonderland. I like him. Plus, he's from Czechoslovakia, so added bonus (gotta support the homeland).

David Lynch has nothing on that.

Re: Jan Svankmajer's Dancing Meat

Dancing meat? No. But Lynch has other, darker powers on his side.

I know someone who knows someone who knows what the baby in Eraserhead is made of. He even showed me developmental pics and the various stages of creating it.

I was so scared.

Random thought: I know David Lynch personally.

Possession is a classier kind of insane.

Okay, okay.

But for bouncing, squeaking meat I'll take Lunacy.
