Jason watches THE DANCE OF REALITY

Ah...Alejandro Jodorowsky, being his Jodorowskiest. Making it a whole family affair, he casts his own son as his overbearing, Stalin-worshiping father (and his other sons as an Anarchist and a Theosophist.) He creates a surreal auto-biography full of allegory, religion, politics, vivid visuals, pornography, child abuse, and dick jokes. Jodorowsky has often said he tries to achieve through cinema what most people achieve through recreational drugs. I think he has succeeded here, but it might also be a movie that only appeals to die-hard Jodorowsky fans.
