Alejandro Jodorowsky's 1989 masterpiece explored trauma in a way that only he can.
The Big Picture Few filmmakers have so adeptly explored the psycho-spiritual aspect of the human condition as Alejandro Jodorowsky. His films are known for breaking down the barriers between high and low art, for presenting the human experience as it truly is with both the sacred and the profane intact.
Fenix's story is one of grief and self-actualization, the kind of transformation that is seldom seen in horror. However, the tropes and violence associated with the genre allow the film to explore the darkest reaches of Fenix's thoughts, feelings, and desires. Often, those thoughts, feelings, and desires feel alien to Fenix himself. They are uncontrollable and have completely hijacked his identity.
