Three of the visionary director Alejandro Jodorowsky's most celebrated yet rarely seen films - El Topo, Holy Mountain and Fando & Lis. All have been digitally restored and remastered, under the close supervision of the director himself, and presented along with an array of superb extra features, including a rare 1957 short, original trailers and deleted scenes.
El Topo (1970): The gunfighter El Topo ('The Mole') and his young son ride through a desert to a village, whose inhabitants have been massacred. Bandits are nearby, torturing and killing the survivors. El Topo rescues a woman (Mara), who leads him on a mission to find and defeat the four master gunmen of the desert.
Holy Mountain (1973): An epic hallucination filled with weirdness and wonder. The story centres on a thief who joins a group of people who plan to storm The Holy Mountain and steal the secret of eternal life...
Fando & Lis (1968): Fando and his partially paralyzed lover Lis search for the mythical city of Tar. Based on Jodorowsky's memories of a play by surrealist Fernando Arrabal.

This collection of short films from the extreme arthouse director was in my view boring and very arty i couldent get to grips with the content and didiny see the disc to the end
An exercise in pseudo-intellectualism typical of its era.
