Remembering David Lynch, and his wonderfully surreal PlayStation 2 adverts


Director-writer David Lynch, known for his surreal work across film and television, has passed away at the age of 78.

While Lynch is best known for his work on TV series such as Twin Peaks and films like Mulholland Drive, the creator is also a memorable part of PlayStation's history, responsible for several iconic PS2 adverts which arrived with that unmistakable Lynchian brand of surrealism and shades of neo-noir. Fallout actor Kyle Maclachlan called Lynch "an enigmatic and intuitive man with a creative ocean bursting forth inside of him". | Image credit: Kyle Maclachlan Posting on social media last night, Remedy boss and Alan Wake writer Sam Lake shared his sadness at Lynch's passing.
