With Lost Highway, David Lynch proves once again why he is a master at telling stories that elude logical structures. The soundtrack by composer Angelo Badalamenti creates an oppressive and unforgettable atmosphere that perfectly complements the dark, surreal images. 

Lost Highway (1997) opens with Fred Madison (Bill Pullman), a saxophonist living a seemingly quiet existence with his wife Renee (Patricia Arquette). Their lives take a sinister turn when they receive mysterious videotapes recording their home and private life. What follows is a nightmarish journey full of unexpected twists, changing identities and a constant sense of unease.

The film does not easily pigeonhole itself. It is a mix of film noir, psychological horror and surreal dreamscapes. Lynch uses every cinematic technique in his arsenal to create an ominous atmosphere that keeps you on the edge of your seat.
