Watched Fire Walk With Me yesterday and thought that the "jumping man" looked like the character from the After Hours era with the red suit. The afro is too much of a coincidence, considering how Abel always intentionally changes up his hair with every album.

maybe Abel is a Lynch fan. wouldn't surprise me
Great spot, mate. Certainly wouldn’t surprise me.
I’ve always wondered if the Red Room didn’t have some sort of inspiration on some of the settings for this album too.

There’s the obvious Eraserhead/BBTM album cover link too.

The character is based off Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, thought this been known.
I can see some Lynch influence in the design.
Lost Highway is definitely how you know he a lil film nerd. Even in Lynch fan circles that one is probably rated in the bottom tier. Between that and Wild At Heart

Lost Highway is one of his most popular bruh
the character is more of an amalgamation than a direct inspiration from one film.
