You've got to hand it to Jennifer Chambers Lynch: The daughter of cinematic visionary David Lynch is nothing if not persistent.

Her 1993 debut as a director, "Boxing Helena," featured "Twin Peaks" bombshell Sherilyn Fenn with all four limbs amputated and held captive by the always odious Julian Sands. This film worked on audiences like insect repellent does on bugs, and it seemed like the younger Lynch's career was on a swift spiral down the old porcelain bowl.

Now, some 15 years later, she's back with a second film, "Surveillance," which answers the question: What would you get if you crossed "Twin Peaks" with "Friday the 13th?" Unlike "Boxing Helena," it won't make you want to throw stuff at the screen, but you'll still leave the cinema with a rather grimy feeling.
