Collider Games, in association with Showtime, presents the Twin Peaks VR experience. Designed in collaboration with David Lynch and his team to faithfully recreate the Twin Peaks world, the immersive VR experience combines the supernatural, adventure and escape room genres, challenging players to solve enigmatic puzzles and explore detailed and authentic environments all within virtual reality for the first time ever. David Lynch says of the VR adventure, “The 3-dimensional world of Twin Peaks VR gives rise to a 10-dimensional experience.” Players can revisit several locations from the iconic television series including the Red Room, Glastonbury Grove, Sheriff’s Department, Glass Box Observation and more.
David Lynch, in full David Keith Lynch, (born January 20, 1946, Missoula, Montana, U.S.), American filmmaker and screenwriter. His early ambition was to become a painter, and after graduating from high school (1964) in Alexandria, Virginia, he enrolled at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. He later (1965–69) studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. There he created his first film, a 60-second animation entitled Six Men Getting Sick (1967), for an experimental painting and sculpture contest. In 1970 Lynch became a student at the American Film Institute’s Center for Advanced Film Studies (later the AFI Conservatory), where he began working on his first feature film, Eraserhead (1977). After Eraserhead became a success on the midnight movie circuit, Lynch was hired to direct the biographical film The Elephant Man (1980), from which he gained mainstream success. He was then employed by the De Laurentiis Entertainment Group and proceeded to make two films: the sci-fi epic Dune (1984), which proved to be a critical and commercial failure, and the neo-noir mystery film Blue Velvet (1986), which initially stirred controversy over its depiction of violence but later grew in reputation until it was critically acclaimed. Lynch next created his own television series with Mark Frost, the popular murder mystery Twin Peaks (1990–1991), which ran for two seasons. He also created the film prequel Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me (1992), the road film Wild at Heart (1990), and the family film The Straight Story (1999) in the same period. Turning further towards surrealist filmmaking, three of his subsequent films operated on dream logic non-linear narrative structures: Lost Highway (1997), Mulholland Drive (2001), and Inland Empire (2006). Meanwhile, he embraced the Internet as a medium and produced several web-based shows, such as the animated series DumbLand (2002) and the surreal sitcom Rabbits (2002). Lynch and Frost reunited in 2017 for a third season of Twin Peaks, which aired on Showtime. Lynch co-wrote and directed every episode, as well as reprising his onscreen role as Gordon Cole. In addition to writing and directing, Lynch often served as sound designer and wrote music for his films. He also continued to express himself as a painter, photographer, and installation artist.
