Well last week we had a film screening adn what I saw I have seen nothing like before. ‘ The Holy Mountain’ directed by Alejandro Jodorowsky is from what i gathered about a group of people who each represent one of the planets and a thief are trying to get to the holy mountain which connects heaven and earth so that they can become immortal. its hard to really explain what the immagery was like and about but I would definetly say it was worth seeing. i did think some of the set designs were really quite interesting and almost beautiful to look at.

One of the things that i could see that the film had clearly influenced was the mighty boosh. Their charcter Rudi is very much like the alchemist from the holy mountain who is played by Jodorowsky himself.

As i said though definetly worth seeing whether you love it or hate it.
