Twin Peaks: Collection [Blu-ray] [2016] [Region Free]

Product Information

At its best, the new Twin Peaks feels like witnessing something totally unprecedented, in which a TV network gave an artist – not "artist" in the coy way we talk about everyone in the entertainment industry, but a genuine creator of challenging and confrontational works of art – a healthy budget and free rein go absolutely bonkers, delivering his uncompromised vision straight from his subconscious to viewers' eyeballs for 18 hours. That's amazing, even revolutionary. David Lynch treats this opportunity as his magnum opus, the summation of his career, and tears loose with it in ways he never could on the original ABC series. What more could any fan possibly ask? As a film, Fire Walk With Me is tied so closely to the TV show that it cannot be rated as a standalone work. A viewer who hasn't seen the series will not be able to make sense of much in the movie. Other than the Criterion branding, I'm not sure that I see much point in re-releasing the film separately when every existing Blu-ray copy of the TV series comes with a disc that's about 90% identical to this one. Pieces of Pie: Shooting at the Mar T (aka RR) Diner (SD, 10 min.) – An interview with the owner of the café that became an iconic part of the series.

Log Lady Intros (HD, approx. 1 min. each) – For the series rebroadcast on the Bravo cable network in the mid 1990s, David Lynch wrote and shot introductions to every episode with actress Catherine Coulson in character, speaking rambling nonsense that has little pertinence to anything. I've never cared for these but, for better or worse, they're part of the show's legacy. The video is encoded in 1080p resolution but is extremely grainy and looks upconverted from standard definition. (I believe the intros were shot on video at the time.) Lynch is meticulous about his sound design, and the mix here consistently makes interesting (often unsettling) use of ambient sounds, subtle effects, and quietness. It also has big swings in dynamic range. Any given scene can shift from a whisper to a thunderous blare of noise without warning. Bass occasionally digs deep, but mostly resides in the mid-range spectrum.like the present to take the plunge. If you've already fallen in love with the series and all its mysteries, eccentric inhabitants and otherworldly seep into the real world. The LFE channel and rear speakers give their all as well, forging an able-bodied experience that's more cinematic than Other new extras include a new sit down Lynch himself has with Lee, Zabriskie and Wise, which is split into two sections. In one, he speaks to them in-character as Laura, Sarah and Leland, asking them how they are now (Yes, even if their respective character is dead). The other is Lynch having a more down to Earth chat with the three about their memories and reflections about working on the series. In both cases, it’s really interesting material.

Most stood by their director, but others, Kyle MacLachlan in particular, felt abandoned, while still others like Lara Flynn Boyle held a An Introduction to David Lynch (SD, 22 min.) – Numerous interviews with the cast, crew and a film professor attempt to explain Lynch's impact on the series. The piece doesn't contain anything that a fan doesn't already know, but includes some nice anecdotes.

Though there's some slight -- slight -- variation in quality as the series proper unfolds, it's extremely negligible, and really While there were two previous DVD releases of Twin Peaks, the new Blu-ray release, called The Entire Mystery, still stands out for several reasons. First, of course, is the upgrade to HD, with a gorgeous looking re-mastered image that takes a show that always visually stood out and makes it look even more vibrant and lush. And then there’s the inclusion of the feature film prequel, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me.
