The alleged "genius" Lynch does things like go from the word "scissors" to a cut with scissors (ha ha, visual pun) and do a lingering closeup of the love interest's photo a few minutes before she appears out of the shadows.  I've been avoiding this movie for years because of its disturbing content, but the worst we get in the first quarter-hour is an ear that I expected the detective to suspect was from a joke shop.  I didn't find this as enjoyably campy as Twin Peaks (https://reviewingsometvshowsidontown.blogspot.com/2019/06/twin-peaks-episode-11.html), but it wasn't as unbearable as I expected.
