Alamo Drafthouse New Mission is inviting movie-goers to take a deep dive in the fascinating world of David Lynch.
The San Francisco cinema salutes the equally visionary and iconic director — who died in January at the age of 78 — by showing several of his greatest works in March and April.
“He was a singular artist who peeled back layers of the collective unconscious in American pop culture,” organizers wrote about Lynch on the Alamo website. “We invite you to experience — on the big screen — Lynch’s unique ability to blend noir, horror, comedy, and existential dread, and the unforgettable cinematic experiences he created.”
Topping our must-see list is “Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me,” the 1992 prequel to Lynch and Mark Frost’s first-tier cult TV hit “Twin Peaks.” The feature length film actually drew horrible reviews upon its release, as well as flopped at the box office, but critical and popular consensus has changed over the years and “Fire Walk With Me” is now rightfully considered one of the director’s finest works.
“Twin Peaks: Fire With Me” shows 9:10 p.m. March 14 and 6 p.m. March 19.

Other Lynch favorites set to hit the big screen include “Wild at Heart,” “Lost Highway,” “Mulholland Drive,” “Inland Empire,” “The Elephant Man” and “Dune” (1984) — with the latter still ranking as our favorite film adaptation of the Frank Herbert novel.
