We step into the Red Room to say farewell to the cinematic legend David Lynch. Diving into the dreamlike and the mundane, Cesar and Greg walk you through the scenes that were buried deep into their subconscious. From mystery men at house parties to Italian executives spitting out espressos, this list captures the banal and the terrifying in a way only Mr. Lynch could.

"I don’t know why people expect art to make sense when they accept the fact that life doesn’t make sense." - David Lynch

Hot on the heels of Robert Eggers' new take on the legend of Nosferatu, Cesar and Greg sink their teeth into their top movie vampires. From Nordic children and hedonistic '80s biker gangs to leather-clad martial artists and bloodthirsty humanists, they explore a wide array of takes and subversions of the tropes left behind by ol'Dracula and Count Orlok.
