Funded by Allen Klien , the godfather of rock music in the 1960s and the
manager of the Beatles (investors include John Lennon and his wife Yoko Ono),
the total production cost was as high as $1.5 million

, which was the highest production cost at the time. Mexican film.



George Harrison, who is also a member of the Beatles, adored the director after watching "The Weasel". He wanted to have a role in "Holy Mountain", but because he refused to perform a performance, he thought it was a bit nonsensical. The naked scene even exposed the anus, and the director insisted on refusing to act as a substitute or delete the scene, and finally had to fail.


This avant-garde experimental work depicts a Jesus-like figure who wanders in an eerie place, meets a mysterious guide, and through him meets six powerful people, each representing the of a planet. Together with the guide's assistant, there were nine of them, who gave up their belongings and searched for the "holy mountain" in their minds, hoping to live forever.

    The evil scriptures are not nonsensical and bloody, digging apples in the stomach, cutting jj to donate treasures, nipples turning into tiger heads and ejaculating milk...... All to tell us that there is no eternal life, only real life...... .

    Jodorowsky's masterpiece, one of the greatest cult films. From the plot to the composition of the picture, it projects a bizarre and absurd panic, which is extremely satirical and banter, but it is full of the temptation of ghosts and evil spirits. Every frame of the picture is a perfect picture of geometric composition; there is very little dialogue, and every story makes people feel that there is an infinite connotation to dig into, but the work is already like this, for me, it can only be appreciated and worshipped. Unable to interpret.

    The Alchemist: We are images, dreams, photographs. We must not stay here. Prisoners! We shall break the illusion. This is Maya! Goodbye to the Holy Mountain. Real life awaits us.
