Rampart or 30 Minutes or Less? Only options on TV I haven't seen yet.

If anyone has seen them..

Haven't seem them, but watch Rampart, I've heard Harrelson gave a nice performance :thumbup:

Would anybody recommend Fear X?

If you're in the mood for a blatant homage to David Lynch with an ambiguous ending that does NOT pay off at all, then yes. Sounds like i'm dissing it but it has great atmosphere and Winding Refn's usual penchant for the color red is in OVERDRIVE here. Reddest movie ever, besides maybe Hellboy. Okay dumb joke. See it if you're a big Refn fan or Lynch fan, but otherwise it's the least of his films in my opinion. Hope this helps!

David Lynch is so odd, I like him though:-) Loved Blue Velvet and Wild at Heart:-)

You hit all the right notes with that paragraph. Though I still think Fear X is worth watching even if it is ultimately just an exercise in mood and style. And I'm not even a Refn fan.

Speaking of Lynch, anyone seen Lost Highway? Must-see or should I skip?

Must-see.One of his best IMHO.Very great and unique atmosphere.Great choices of music and nice cinematography.In terms of characters and story I say it's a more personal and less ambitious version of Mullholand Dr.

My favorite Lynch. Great film :thumbup:

All of Lynch's work is must-see. Even if you don't like him.
