iwanttobelikearollingstone: “Eraserhead is a nightmare vision of a world where men control all aspects of reproduction, turning sex into a mechanised process. The result is a world of industrial decay where life is more morbid than death itself. The infamous baby in Eraserhead is not naturally conceived but created by The Man on the Planet (Jack Fisk), a deformed monster who unnaturally creates life by pulling levers. Without love, life is an artificially created abomination.” I finally saw Eraserhead during the Lynch fest last week, & I felt weirdly maternal towards the baby. Also, it’s obviously an influence on the baby in the amazing short film Tub.
