He meets a mystical guide who introduces him to seven wealthy and powerful people, each representing a planet in the Solar system. These seven, along with the protagonist, the guide and the guide's assistant, divest themselves of their worldly goods and form a group of nine who will seek the Holy Mountain, in order to displace the gods who live there and become immortal.

Quotes The Alchemist : [final lines] We began in a fairytale and we came to life, but is this life reality? Connections Featured in Come and Judge User reviews Review. Top review. Pretentious, Boring, but not a total waste. I refuse to be condemned by the art-house snobs for not liking this movie. People read way too much into a lot of different art, and it doesn't make them some special visionary.

Sometimes artsy fartsy crap is just that. This movie is not "above" you intellectually or artistically. The Holy Mountain is essentially a collage of wacky, strange, self-important images and scenes that really don't mean anything. Don't you ever wonder? There's a reason these rare, cult movies have only been seen by a small percentage of the population. It's not because we're better than the "unwashed, uncultured masses". It's because if the movie was actually really good it would be more widely seen.

It's because some of us heard about these obscure, cult movies and actually took the time and energy to seek them out. And sometimes we just weren't that impressed. Okay, and maybe it's because some jerk has held the release rights hostage for entirely too long.

Now having said all of that, I still don't think it is a waste of time to watch. How can I say that? Then after he had gathered his cast, he took them on a three month retreat to prepare, and the film itself seems to have taken six months to shoot.

All three are essential works. Jodorowsky truly is Alexandro the Great. Holy Mountain is not about being high, it is about seeing through all illusions, of which getting high very much is one of those illusions. It is a huge satire of the modern world in which the Alchemist played by Alexandro himself finds the most horrible people in the solar system, and then takes them on a quest that pacifies them by promising immortality - just like the regular religions!

For a film that does not go "inside" any of the characters -- we see them in beautifully framed compositions -- it is very easy to follow and never lets the viewer down. In the end, he even reveals the secret of immortality. I believe The Holy Mountain may be the most perfect Utopian vision ever put on film. And if someone tried to make a film like this today, they'd probably be arrested.

It is an iniciation to the metaphysical reality that happens through simbology and the tale of the climbing of each and every one's mountain. Prepare yourself, it takes you to digest! This kind of movie would never been possible to makes nowadays with nudity in children of such a young age, and makes ou think about the boundaries of madness and genious.

Truly remarkable, a piece of timeless art of Cinema. This is the most amazing piece of cinematic art I have ever seen. It is frightening that I understood the whole thing.
