Elmes tells IndieWire about "haunting dark corners" with the late filmmaker on "Eraserhead" and the great feedback Lynch gave him at the "Blue Velvet" DGA premiere.

The famously weird filmmaker set his 1986 movie in Lumberton, with many modifications, and filmed in Wilmington during its film infancy.

David Lynch, the four-time Oscar-nominee behind ‘Blue Velvet,’ ‘Mulholland Drive’ and ‘The Elephant Man’ who also created TV's ‘Twin Peaks,’ has died at 78.
