In the folksy town of Deerfield, Wash., FBI Agent Desmond (Chris Isaak) inexplicably disappears while hunting for the man who murdered a teen girl. The killer is never apprehended, and, after experiencing dark visions and supernatural encounters, Agent Dale Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan) chillingly predicts that the culprit will claim another life. Meanwhile, in the similarly cozy town of Twin Peaks, hedonistic beauty Lara Palmer (Sheryl Lee) hangs with lowlifes and seems destined for a grisly fate.

Critics Consensus

For better or worse, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me is every bit as strange and twisted as you'd expect from David Lynch.

Jason Bailey Flavorwire 05/19/2017
David Lynch's prequel film, maligned upon its initial release, can now be seen as a hinge in his filmography - and a hint of what's to come. Go to Full Review

In its own singular, deeply strange way, Fire Walk With Me is David Lynch's masterpiece. Go to Full Review

There have always been two sides to Lynch: the inscrutable, demonic prankster and the rhapsodic dreamer. In Fire Walk With Me, he's at least trying to recover his poetic sincerity. If only his dreams weren't starting to look like reruns. Go to Full Review

An ungainly and unnecessary prequel to the excellent TV series. Go to Full Review
Michelle Swope Elements of Madness Dec 29
Angelo Badalamenti’s (Mulholland Drive; Blue Velvet) score highlights the surrealism, perfectly complements the themes of good and evil, and is especially effective during the darker moments. Go to Full Review
Sydney Lee Horror Movie Talk Dec 4
10/10
It’s eccentric and unsettling enough to keep you on your toes as you watch, but it also keeps so many secrets to the truth about Twin Peaks, about Bob, about Laura that it leaves you wanting more (and then you can watch The Return to satisfy that itch). Go to Full Review

Mar 15 I knew going in that this film was a prequel to the original show, and that it answered some of the questions the first 2 seasons of the show couldn't answer. What I wasn't expecting was to have my mind, body, and soul transported into a realm that I am still reeling from. I had myself a good time, but only because I knew about half of the original show. I'm definitely going to finish it after watching this film. See more Mar 15 One of the best David Lynch films, each time I watch it I see it from different perspectives. Incredible acting by Ray Wise and Sheryl Lee. It is the perfect prequel story to the television series. See more Christopher K @gtrod47 Nov 13 Too weird to ignore. Super unpredictable.
