Jodorowsky improves upon ideas he touched upon in his debut film, "El Topo," with this exquisitely crafted gem. Santa Sangre depicts a truly original perspective on a mother-son relationship and while the first half of the film is all set-up, the second half is of the oh-my-god-jaw-to-the-ground-excellent variety.
