This is brilliant! Thank you so much for uploading this. Eraserhead is my favorite movie and I love learning about the history of the film and it's long production. This is great because there isn't too much in depth talk with the crew and cast because most of them are dead now. There is not much "Behind the Scenes" stuff because it was such an old, low budget movie. This has been a real treat. Thank you so much.
I saw Eraserhead in the theater with my stepfather a few times between the ages 4 and 6 years old. I do think i may have experienced some damaging psychological effects from viewing it at such a young age. I remember lying in bed at night thinking about the movie and what I interpreted the plot to be about. I’m not quite sure how it effected me in the longterm but I wouldn’t recommend that parents take their young children to see the film. I believe it caused me to be a bit fearful of fatherhood, something I’ve not experienced for myself and am unlikely to at my age. The movie still churns up a lot of mixed emotions for me although I’ve only watched clips recently and haven’t watched it in its entirety since I was 6 years old. It was also strange seeing it with my stepfather at the time because he was a new person to me and hadn’t children of his own till I was almost a teenager among other reasons. I saw a lot of other weird movies as a kid too. I can’t say there were any quite as strange as this one though.
My dad showed it to me around 12 or 13. I can distinctly remember being uncomfortable and weirded out and I can remember asking him to turn it off towards the end when the baby gets sick.

Now waiting for the YT copyright strikes to wear down

Yes, that's certainly not a movie for kids.
