Home from college, Jeffrey Beaumont (Kyle MacLachlan) makes an unsettling discovery: a severed human ear, lying in a field. In the mystery that follows, by turns terrifying and darkly funny, writer-director David Lynch burrows deep beneath the picturesque surfaces of small-town life. Driven to investigate, Jeffrey finds himself drawing closer to his fellow amateur sleuth, Sandy Williams (Laura Dern), as well as their person of interest, lounge singer Dorothy Vallens (Isabella Rossellini)—and facing the fury of Frank Booth (Dennis Hopper), a psychopath who will stop at nothing to keep Dorothy in his grasp. With intense performances and hauntingly powerful scenes and images, Blue Velvet is an unforgettable vision of innocence lost, and one of the most influential American films of the past few decades.

Title: Awful disc
Review: Was so pleased with the transfer and vibrant colors. Everything is fine until you get past the nightclub performance. This is where the issues begin and don't end. When Jeffrey is caught in the closet that's where the freezing and jumps start to occur. I ejected and made sure there was no scratches of any sort. Didn't find any and replayed the disc and the same problems occurred over and over again. For a favorite film from David Lynch, I must say that this disc is a big letdown. I'll just stick with the excellent bluray disc until I later decide to repurchase this title. By the way, a reviewer mentioned about the authoring of the disc being that of Trainspotting, he was correct it did display the title before I pressed play button! Criterion, get it together or you will lose your loyal customers!!!

Title: Fantastic movie, amusing disc authoring fail
Review: What can I say about this movie that hasn't already been said? It's a classic, it's amazing, and this 4k UHD release is phenomenal.I wrote this review to mention something that I found amusing. Whoever over at Criterion authored this disc clearly had a major copy/paste fail. If you look at the actual disc titles, it says it's Trainspotting! 😀 Which is also an amazing movie. The disc contents are correct in that it is actually Blue Velvet, but the titles on the disc are for another movie. Probably someone copy/pasted the disc info from Trainspotting's 4k UHD Criterion release and forgot to change the title. I bet some intern got fired over this one!But that doesn't impact the actual movie, just thought it funny. Definitely get this release!

Title: Top praise for Criterion's "Blue Velvet" release from a Lynch fan...
Review: I may have seen "Blue Velvet" several times already, but whenever I get the Criterion Collection release of a film I've seen before it always feels like watching it for the first time!Made in 1986, right after the flop that was "Dune," this is a great mystery thriller full of pitch black humor, romance and interesting ideas and characters. What's really striking watching it again now in 2022 is to see where a lot of the style and themes explored further in "Twin Peaks" started developing here - like the sleepy small town hiding some dark and crazy secrets. The characters of Detective Williams and his daughter Sandy played by Laura Dern feel very similar in their personality to the characters of Dr. Hayward and daughter Donna Hayward in "Twin Peaks." And of course the mix of 1950's aesthetics with late 1980's, a detail that also connect the two.Is "Blue Velvet" David Lynch most accessible film? Not sure, but it is definitely his most linear and logical film not as dreamlike as, say, "Mulholland Drive" or "Twin Peaks" for that matter, but full of all that cozy weirdness that is so Lynch and that I, at least, really love. I of course recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it but is into that, and I of course recommend the luxurious Criterion release.

Title: Am I going totally mad or what
Review: Born out of necessity to be made, David Lynch took a huge pay cut for total control and agreed to film in the remote woodlands of Wilmington NC as Lumberton making a devil be damned contract with Dino De Laurentis as the money man to assemble very young, innocent Kyle MacLachlan, Laura Dern, now older Issabella Rosselini, Dennis Hopper, Dean Stockwell, Brad Dourif, Larry Nance from Eraserhead fame, plus many more luminaries numerous to mention as the necessary fuel for this blazing hot celluloid noir of forested woods meets shame and blame.I was a big fan of this film upon it's original 1986 release. Having moved on in my personal taste and vision of what I want to see I'd put this along side of Mullholland Dr. as Lynch's best films. Grabbing a huge slice of a nation's last brush of innocence meets wickedness beyond compare, we witness the undoing of characters new and original as yet never seen before in filmic history.A romance and love letter film at heart, Lynch gets all the small details right. Stuff he would later abuse in the mediocre Twin Peaks to no ends. This film reeks of authenticity, originality, and just enough intrigue to keep a Hitchcockian edge and look throughout. Made for peanuts and a small tight crew more and most have never been made before over a singular human ear. The bonus extras on the Criterion blu - ray are substantial and resemble a constant retelling over and over, each original in it's own beckoning call. This is a must for fans and newbies alike.

Review: Bought this on the Dutch Amazon site, didn't watch it yet untill today (after the return date was expired) and apparently it doesn't work in Europe (and part of Asia, Australia, the middle east, etc). Great job to amazon to selling things that don't even work in the country from which the site I bought it from.

Review: just released by criterion collection....special edition 1080 blu ray of a new 4k scan of david lynch's Blue Velvet. lotsa of documentaries and cut scenes in the supplements section. this is one of the best movies of the 1980s and perhaps of all time. a small town surreal creepy study of voyeurism, abuse, violence, subtle humanistic comedy revelations, secrets and dependance and americana in general. starring dennis hopper as frank booth, isabella rossellini as the blue lady, laura dern and kyle maclachlan. this film is out there sort to speak, but one of the more digestable and straightforward ones of lynch's. a masterpiece. The transfer from the original film negative is a 3.5 out of four rating and the sound ,(including a dts HD master quality audio,) is a 4 out of 4. The extras are amazing. Definitive version.
