holy mountain

i just picked up a copy of alexandro jodorowsky's HOLY MOUNTAIN. abcko finally released a cleaned up version, previously available only in shitty foreign bootleg. the first time i saw the film it was on vhs. i loved it at the time, but now on my second viewing in beautifully touched up dvd, i am blow away. this film is a landmark for experimental-psychedelic cinema. filled with esoteric mysticism, tarot, drugs, sex, religion, astrology and death. when the spanish crusading fleet of frogs destroy the peaceful south american lizards you will weep. make a machine orgasm.
