Reading online apparently Jodorowsky is the father of the midnight movie, when John Lennon and Yoko Ono had El Topo playing at midnight shows and it went on for a year.
I can’t imagine sitting through this until 2am, not because it’s bad but because it’s such a heady, strange film. There’s a ton to love about it, but I most certainly liked the first half way better than the 2nd. I just thought the whole gun fighter thing was more interesting than the 2nd half which seemed to deal with his redemption. In fact it really seems like 2 different movies in a lot of ways.
