El Topo

...denouncing a movie because it makes demands on the imagination as much as the intellect simply represents sloppy criticism.

Best viewed at midnight.

The film exists as an unforgettable experience, but not as a comprehensible one.

Playing deity in front of and behind the camera, the director uses film as a direct pipe into his own mind, and the bursting valise of ideas, images, and sounds that results is a veritable blur of ridiculous and sublime...

A gunfighter (Jodorowsky) avenges the death of his wife,then, spurred on by a woman, seeks to prove himself by defeating other master gunfighters.
