Review of El Topo (1970) by Michael K — 30 Dec 2007
I...it...what? Yeah, it's more linear than anything David Lynch has ever done, but it still confuses the living bejeezus out of me. Just about everything in the movie is symbolic in one way or another, and the images are ridiculous.
Most certainly the weirdest western I've ever seen, and now I want to hunt down Jodorowsky's other movies just to see how insane and effed up those are.
