Alejandro Jodorowsky's name-making cult item, with a legend-toned Quest story and a hero (Jodorowsky himself) who begins as an Italian-western figure in black leather and ends as a shaven-headed anchorite. It's a mess of symbols and religiosity and Arrabalian surrealism and Peckinpahian violence, and the worst it can do is loosen a few screws in your head. (1971) — Duncan Shepherd
