5 Scariest Metaphysical Lynch Characters

1. Garbage Monster - Mulholland Drive: One of the most terrifying film moments ever. It only appears for a few seconds but you totally don't see it coming (and cannot explain the reason for it).

2. Mystery Man - Lost Highway: Robert Blake in white makeup with a video camera. Made scarier by his real-life actions. 

3. Killer BOB - Twin peaks: Incarnation of pure evil, king of the Black Lodge, and wears a jean jacket ensemble. I imagine he smells and has poor hygeine.

4. Old Couple - Mulholland  Drive: WTH? Mini black-and-white elderly couple stalk Naomi Watts at the height of her insanity.

5. Kid and elderly lady - Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me: Not so terrifying on the television series but when he is running around in that mask, crazy scary.

Honorable Mention: Frank - Blue Velvet: A real blood and bones character but is too bizarre to exist in any world. And my favorite Lynch creation.
