| Summary |
It was the landmark cult film that began the Midnight Movie phenomena of the counterculture crazy '70s. Classic Americana and avant-garde European cinema sensibilities meet Zen Buddhism and the Bible as master gunfighter and cosmic mystic El Topo must defeat his four sharp-shooting rivals on an ever-increasingly bizarre path to allegorical self-enlightenment and surreal resurrection. With new extras. |
