The Films of Alejandro Jodorowsky
Anchor Bay
Anchor Bay’s most exciting DVD release in several years comprises the Spanish surrealist’s intriguing Fando y Lis, his iconic El Topo and his absolute masterpiece, The Holy Mountain. They’re packaged with soundtrack albums, commentaries, an early short film and documentaries on his life. Jodorowski’s films push narrative form with abstract art. Pulsating with images of death, sex, gore and religion, they’re intellectual, lush and utterly repellent.
