Review of Santa Sangre (1989) by Christopher S — 01 Nov 2008
Another bizarre masterpiece from Alejandro Jodorowsky. Instead of going for the full-blown surrealism of 'El Topo' and 'The Holy Mountain', he weaves his strange and nightmarish visions into a strong story with well-developed characters.
A backstage circus melodrama, twisted psycho-thriller, and gothic horror film all with a darkly comic, operatic tone. Magnificent score by Simon Boswell.
