So I'm sitting on this chair, in this house, on mars when this movie comes on. TWIN PEAKS. The first thing I saw was this grotesque factory-mill type place. And then there was this close-up shot of some rusty machine, and it moved...it moved with the music. Sparks were shooting out everywhere, and it was all moving to this other-worldly melody. Then waterfalls, ponds, ducks...in less than one minute, Lynch had sucked me in, shattered me, put me back together (the way he saw fit), and then he dropped me off into TWIN PEAKS.
The whole thing was beatiful. Lynch and Frost had created this soft cloud of a world that was filled shards of glass and rusty nails. It was all like a dream -a dream that you don't want to wake up from. Bobby, Donna, Shelly, Big Ed. I was lost.
"I too have been touched by the devilish one. Ahh, but when I saw the face of God..." This sleek-Norman Rockwell-wrong way on a one way street-imitation silk-nightmare is a mountain top work of art that leads you dead on into the midst of the footstool of the heavens.
-be sure to watch it in the full blossom of the evening, and you just might experience the beatific vision...FIRE WALK WITH ME.

If only it were on DVD! This tape contains the classic 2 hour pilot for David Lynch's extraordinary and quirky TV cult favorite, "Twin Peaks". This 2 hour intro is NOT part of the six tape "complete" series collection that has the actual 29 episodes. There is a neat, confusing, untelevised 15 minute ending that was used to "wrap up" the whole murder when this same tape was released in Europe as a made-for-TV movie. Still, it is simply Twin Peaks at its best.

The inagural episode of David Lynch's Twin Peaks serves not only as a pilot for a great show but as a movie that can be appreciated independently of the series. The bizarre ending is purely Lynchian and gives us a resolution to the mystery. I am convinced that Twin Peaks would be successful as a feature film. It's that good.

In this VHS, just the pilot episode is avaible, but, just the pilot is enought to you see what the series is about. And, of course, the first scenes, of Laura Palmer's body in the beach, are classic scenes. If you never watch the series, don't try to understand the ending scene. Buy the entire series on VHS and watch everything, you're gonna understand fast !

I just found out about this series on the internet, having had no idea what it was about. The reviews were so good I ordered the tapes. I'm about halfway through the series now, and it's fantastic! I only give this one four stars because of the extra footage at the end, which caused me a lot of confusion when I first started to watch the episodes. But thanks to what other reviewers have written, it didn't take me long to figure out that some of that stuff shouldn't have been there. If you're considering buying the tapes, also be aware that the quality of the episode tapes is horrible. But I guess that's better than paying twice as much for tapes recorded in SP mode! All in all, the quality of this brilliant series far surpasses these few minor glitches.
