Best Movies EVER!!!

These are insightful movies but not boreing movies. They look a little old, but not much. Watch them, you are going to like them.

From out of the depths

Rescued at long last from inaccessibility, "El Topo" lives up to its reputation as one of the great idiosyncratic "art films" of all time, filled with amazing -- even astonishing -- imagery and enhanced by the director's own haunting musical score. A tour de force for Alejandro Jodorowsky and a genuine must for anyone who enjoys adventurous, maverick moviemaking. Once seen, NEVER FORGOTTEN.

Real art

The Holy Mountain is really the only movie you need to see (and I mean among all films ever made). El Topo and Fando y Lis are almost variations on or preperations for the Holy Mountain, but they are still worth seeing in their own rite. I wouldn't recommend this entire box set unless you are a die hard Jodorowsky fan or a surreal film buff. If you are a surreal film buff I recommend you lower your dose of movies and start engaging with the world more. The cd's are kind of useless, but in general you get more than you pay for with this box set, so if you must buy it you won't be disappointed. Jodorowsky is a rare and genuine artist.

Amazing - truly visionary

If you are looking for a CGI'd Bruce Willis to rapel through a skylight to rescue Julia Roberts with Chandler from Friends as a witty sidekick - I stongly suggest you find another collection to buy. Jodorowsky outwierds the wierdest, but the incredible technical excellence keeps these features quite watchable. There is no doubt that these are low budget "head" movies, but the director has a true vision and he sticks with it. Jordorwsky seems to want to communicate and interact with the audience, but he doesnt seem condecending the way some art house films can be. The Holy Mountain is more of a collection of vignettes, while El Topo follows a definate narrative. A new favorite of mine.
