el topo, a film by alejandro jodorowski

what a fucked up movie. saw it at the castro last night. guns, blood, guts, incest, random images, odd tonal music, super violent, bloody, odd. really two films as it is hard to reconcile the second half with the first or with anything. very interesting film. sexy and brutal.

does anyone remember tones on tail? they were really good. go, twist, christian says, lions. excellent.

writers with drinks at the rickshaw was awesome tonight. I met a couple of new people, charlie anders the hostess was hilarious and smart and fabulous...I did drift off during michelle tea's "cyberpunk" story.
justin chin's feces-focused "erotica" was wonderful and burroughs-like. extreme. like...el topo!

the theme was writers in drag: writers writing in genres outside their usual. I have an idea to make a mash up of of two genres I don't usually dabble in, or haven't in years. maybe charlie will go for it...
