Alexandro Jodorowsky's Holy Mountain




When googling looking for another weird film to watch i came across this wee gem.

Here is a synopsis from someone on imdb.

"A Christlike figure wanders through bizarre, grotesque scenarios filled with religious and sacrilegious imagery. He meets a mystical guide who introduces him to seven wealthy and powerful individuals, each representing a planet in the solar system. These seven, along with the protagonist, the guide and the guide's assistant, divest themselves of their worldly goods and form a group of nine who will seek out the Holy Mountain, in order to displace the gods who live there and become immortal."

It is bizarre and beautiful. Worth a watch.
