The news is in a really big flash file that took me about an hour to download on dial-up.
Jodorowski fans should be very excited.

Wow. I gotta check that out. I once had a friend tell me his movies were a bunch of pretentious art s**t. That bastard held me back from these kinds of films?? If the stores were open at 4 in the morning, I'd go rent everything they had. Anything that's being remastered these days is a godsend. It seems like it takes some nut who loves the films or a grant to restore old films. Too bad I don't have the time. I think film restoration where you spend forty eight days locked in a room with a computer and digital noise reduction software and a can of pork and beans would be a dream job. Anyways, thanks for posting.

This is the biggest film news ever. EL TOPO, HOLY MOUNTAIN, and the third of which I haven't heard of FANDO Y LIS.



And digitally remastered.

Yeah, they can be found
http://www.xploitedcinema.com/dvds/director.asp?director=Alejandro+Jodorowsky

Because of the legal dispute between Allen Klien & Alejandro Jodorowski that's lasted over thirty years, El Topo & Holy Mountain have been primarilly available in the form of faulty bootlegs made from worn out looking prints.

This is big news because Klien & Jodorowski finally reached a settlement a few months ago, meaning this will be the first "official" DVD release.

I don't know what region this new set will be, but it's reason to be enthusiastic.

Actually, they are "a bunch of pretentious art s**t", but Jodorowski does all this with blood, gore, guns, T&A, pretty much all the elements of a good bmovie short of a guy in a bug suit.

A good place to figure it out for yourself would be to read the El Topo companion book over at http://www.subcin.com/bookfilm00.html , Though I must warn you, it does contain spoilers.

I've been asking myself the exact same thing about Fury Road.

What's Fury Road? That's a new one to me. The only other movie I know that he has plans on doing is Tryptych.

Fury Road was supposed to be the fourth Mad Max movie, & has been in the planning stage for about as long as Los Hijos del Topo.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
