Blue Velvet Subtitled VHS Video David Lynch A suspense film in which the brilliant David Lynch depicts a seemingly ordinary young man who, through a chance encounter, is drawn into a nightmarish world, with vivid eroticism, violence, and fetishistic visual beauty. Jeffrey, a college student, returns to the peaceful town of Lumberton to visit his father, who has fallen ill. On his way home from the hospital, he finds a severed human ear in the grass. He informs Detective Williams, a friend of his father's, who advises him not to get involved. However, from the detective's daughter, Sandy, Jeffrey learns that Dorothy, a cabaret singer, seems to be involved. Intrigued by the bizarre experience, Jeffrey sneaks into Dorothy's house in search of clues and eventually gets lost in an abnormal night world filled with crime, violence, and perverted lust.
