lynch first film be a bizarre and revolt and terrify account of a bedridden young girl apparently be torture by the alphabet . the letter appear a weird and threaten shape which ( a in his follow up the grandmother ) seem to take on plant form . the girl herself eventually vomit blood . the film mean isn not clear and and be really of less important than the visuals and which be themselves like move painting . the innocence of the child abc rhyming song be warp to give a frighteningly naive background to the horrific event . lynch trademark be the expression of fear and and this short foreground that motif in the most disturbing way imaginable . fan of this director should try and catch his debut and a it cast it shadow over much of his late work .
