If you’ve endlessly rewatched the films of David Lynch and are looking to appreciate his work in a new way, John Malkovich is here to help. In a new inventive video series/short film titled Psychogenic Fugue, the actor embodies not only the director, but seven of his most iconic characters, from John Merrick to Frank Booth to Log Lady and more.

While some may think this would come from the mind of Spike Jonze as some sort of spin-off to his 1999 feature, the project is actually directed by Sandro Miller and created for David Lynch Foundation. You’ll have to head over to the official site to see the full film (featuring new music from Angelo Badalamenti, Lykke Li, The Flaming Lips, among others) via a donation, but as a preview, we have a trailer and Twin Peaks-inspired clip. At the very least, it’ll help the wait for footage from Lynch’s revival, arriving next year.

Check out both the trailer and clip below.

Psychogenic Fugue is available through a donation on PlayingLynch.com.
