Suggestion: Battle of the Midnight Movies - The Holy Mountain vs. Eraserhead

Recommended Posts

Since you guys already covered The Rocky Horror Picture, how about presenting us with the Sophie's choice of midnight movies and pit The Holy Mountain vs. Eraserhead? It would provide an entry point into talking about Jodorowsky and Lynch, movie culture in the 1970s and the different approach each man took to presenting surrealism and dreams into their movies.

If we're going to do a Jodorowsky film, it should probably be El Topo. It works better with the midnight movie theme.

They were both midnight movies. In fact, they were played on a double bill for awhile after The Holy Mountain was released.

 

I prefer The Holy Mountain, which is why I suggested it. But I don't mind El Topo going up instead.
