Released on the spring of 2002, Rabbits features four popular actors dressed in bunny costumes and reciting seemingly random and irrelevant lines. The film is broken into eight episodes and presented in streaming video. Throughout the fifty or so minutes, Lynch does a nice job keeping the tone dark and moody.
But beware: Rabbits is not for the casual Lynch viewer. It is about as bizarre, confusing, and disjointed as anything he’s ever done. In fact, were it not available exclusively on Lynch’s website, Rabbits could easily be mistaken for some student project downloaded from iFilm. There may be some sort of cosmic significance or transcendental meaning behind the piece, but frankly it really isn’t interesting enough to dissect.
