The Holy Mountain (1973)

A 280 character word review of the symbolic imagery that Jodorowsky employs, and even more, the multiplicity in the meanings of these symbols of this film will not do any sort of justice until you've actually sat down and experienced this film for all it's LSD induced brilliance.
