Why do I only post Cult Films you ask? Because I love them.
The last time I saw this film, I secretly stole it from my brother who had it on VHS. I was pretty young and I knew that I shouldn’t have been watching it, but I watched it anyway. It was insane and some parts were really difficult to watch. But, there were also parts that I found beautiful and interesting and important and I think that it’s something I’ll be re-watching soon, and hopefully the message and messages behind the film will become clear to me now that I’m older.
The film is basically a 113 minute acid trip. Made in 1973, you’ll think everyone in this movie must have been on some serious drugs when this was written and filmed. But actually, they were. The director, Alejandro (who was also the actor, producer, set designer, costumer designer..etc etc) was on acid when writing the script, and supposedly gave his cast mushrooms during critical scenes (although I wholeheartedly believe they were on something much stronger).
Check out some of my favorite psychedelic stills below but be warned that the trailer I’ve included is Not Safe For Work, and not entirely like the stills at all. Honestly, you might regret watching this movie if you see it or you might think it’s just stupid, or it will change your life.
