This is a serious movie.



That's El Topo's serious face.


This one is less serious, but still serious in it's own regard.




Do you see how serious this movie is? Do you see?

I do not lie to you: watching EL TOPO you will say "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE?" not less than ten times. And you'll need the cocaine.

I watched it with my buddy. I kept telling him what great things I've heard about this movie.

We were drinking and by God it was one of the greatest nights of our lives. To this day we have hundreds of inside jokes based off this movie.

I honestly said, "What the hell is going on here?!?!?" about 45 times during the movie. I even replayed scenes to make sure what I saw was what I saw.

I'll never be able to relive that expereince. I can watch it again, but it wouldn't be the same. Kinda like Apocalypse Now. I was 15 when I saw that movie and I was stunned. It hasn't been the same since.

Edit - BTW, I wasn't inferring that El Topo is in the same league as Apocalyspe Now. I was just siting an example. El Topo is better than any movie ever made.

I've not see El Topo yet but Jodorowsky's The Holy Mountain is absolutely wild. I loved it.

I've got it with the El Topo box set I bought. I'll move Holy Mountain to next on my list.

I love the fact that this thread lives on as a testament to the few serious movie fans that have sought it out. This is the one place on SD that the real movie fans can come and discuss the true artistry in cinema w/out the worry of ignorance invading our views. Props to us, and keep it up.
