It's a strange world.

Spawned from the mind of David Lynch, Blue Velvet is a deeply disturbing mixture of the heartfelt and horrific. Clean-cut Jeffrey Beaumont (Kyle MacLachlan) realizes his Mayberry-like hometown is not so normal when he discovers a human ear in a field. His investigation catapults him into an alluring, erotic murder mystery involving a disturbed nightclub singer (Isabella Rossellini) and a drug-addicted sadist (Dennis Hopper). Soon Jeffrey is led deeper into their depraved existence...to the point of no return.
