#94 - PITY THE SACRED FOOL: Decoding The Esoteric Cinema of Alejandro Jodorowsky

Dimitri and Khalid explore the mystical life and filmography of Chilean arthouse auteur Alejandro Jodorowsky, including: the blood-soaked Mansonite acid western vibes of “El Topo”, Beatles manager Allen Klein financing “The Holy Mountain”, Jodorowsky’s domineering Stalinist father, getting sexually awakened by Gurdjieff’s daughter, his aborted 14 hour adaptation of "Dune", run-ins with Esalen Enneagram suslords Oscar Ichazo and Claudio Naranjo, isolation tank experiments with Dr. John C. Lilly, presiding over Marilyn Manson’s wedding, tarot obsessions, castration/scat/incest obsessions, parallels with Kenneth Anger and David Lynch, and why Jodorowsky doesn’t think that Bill Gates sounds like a “spiritually enlightened person”.
