david lynch on cable tv, February 9, 2004
This review is from: Hotel Room [VHS] (VHS Tape)
for those lynch completists out there( and i must be one of them), this is a must have & is extremely difficult to find. i had actually caught hotel room on HBO many a moon ago but it took me awhile to find this on vhs. god willing, one day i will own the dvd of this. trust me, you should already know whether or not you like the work of david lynch & should need little persuasiopn on my end if you do. hotel room is actualyl three vignettes which really have nothing to do with one another other than the mere fact thye all take place in the same creepy hotel. as with most lynch films, there is a strange & surreal atmosphere which crawls underneath your skin. you might pinch yourself every once in awhile just to make sure you haven't actually slipped into the world of lynchian madness. there is betrayal, murder, & madness here as you would expect to find but all stories will keep you guessing & scratching your heads as we've come to expect through classics. think blue velvet, twin peaks, or his last great masterpiece mulholland drive. if you didn't appreciate or understand those films, i seriously doubt you will have much use for or enjoy hotel room. the performances here are nearly stellar & my favorite vignette was the last one with crispin glover & the underrated actress alicia witt. the first & the second vignette(both directed by david himself) are bound to give you the chills or make you feel atleast a lil' uneasy after viewing. it's really a shame that lynch's work is not all readily available on dvd but what's sadder is the high prices we would have to pay for import copies or cheap bootlegs for alll those completists out there. contrary to most people's belief, you cna actually get eraserhead on dvd but you have to purchase it through the david lynch.com website for right now or settle for those cheap bootlegs on ebay which really suck. if hotel room never sees the light of day on dvd, perhaps HBO would bve so kind as to let us all see hotel room again sometime for those who can't find the vhs copy of this little known masterpiece. long live david lynch !!

It is a mystery why this movie has not been re-released., November 20, 1999
This review is from: Hotel Room [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I'm not quite sure what the previous reviewer was referring to, exactly. The movie is in three scenes, the last one of which is equal in length to the first two combined. Though the first two scenes are relatively uneventful, the third scene is most certainly a masterpiece. It is a work of genius - the enormous levels of tension wrung out of so little dialogue. It's a shame that HBO does not frequently re-release their older videos.
