David Lynch, the filmmaker celebrated for his uniquely dark vision in such movies as “Blue Velvet” and “Mulholland Drive” and the TV series “Twin Peaks,” has died just days before his 79th birthday.

His family announced the death in a Facebook post on Thursday. The cause of death and location was not immediately available, but Lynch had been public about his emphysema.

So sad. Hope all the Lynch fans are doing well. We lost a true artist today.

Blue Velvet was the reason I started paying more attention to movies. One of the most fantastic directors we will ever have.
