With caveats. I read the book about 10-15 years before Lynch's movie came out and was thrilled when his movie was announced. Sadly I was grossly disappointed by the end-product. Yes most of his casting was excellent, except for Kyle M. IMHO. That being said I thought the movie was terrible. I stumbled onto this series by accident a few years after it came out in Europe. I much prefer it to Lynch's abortion, mainly because the actual storyline seemed closer to the book and the whole atmosphere felt more "real". Yes the cgi,sets and the obvious non-Hollywood Euro-cast made it obvious that this was a budget constrained production and some of the production qualities were not quite as high as Lynch's film, I get that. But I still say this is the better version and closer to the spirit of the book. I just wish the streaming services would pick it up so we wouldn't be restricted to Lynch's abortion only.
