But Twin Peaks was a good show!

I haven't seen Dune because I don't like Sci-fi but I enjoyed Mulholland Drive. Lynch has made quite a few films other than the ones you mentioned. I'm not sure what "Albino" is but I'm assuming by "Lost" you mean Lost Highway.
Besides those you should see "The Elephant Man", "Blue Velvet", "Wild at Heart" and "The Straight Story".
Although if you are the sort of person who would prefer to watch studio fodder like "Independence Day" then I probably wouldn't go to all that effort. Lynch's films are masterpieces of mood so you need a slightly longer attention span than for most Hollwood movies. I think he's one of the few genuine American auteurs working in cinema today. I'd be tempted to put Martin Scorsese and Joel and Ethan Coen in that elite group as well.
