Reviews for Santa Sangre
1 - 19 (sorted by date)
One of Jodorowsky's finest films, this art horror movie resonates with all the disturbing power of a clammy nightmare filtered through the hallucinatory lens of 1960s psychedelia.
02/26/08
The Mel Brooks of vulgar surrealism, Jodorowsky's basic principle is that if you throw 30 outrageous ideas at the audience, 2 or 3 are bound to make an impression.

Top CriticIt's a weird film.
02/04/08
A mishmash of religious and Freudian symbolism amid torrential bloodshed topped with Fellini flourishes.
03/16/07
Top CriticA film that no adventurous moviegoer can afford to miss.
08/29/06
Jodorowsky's is a strange, violent, but ultimately liberating vision.

Santa Sangre is cobbled together from parts, in the best possible way.
04/17/04
Santa Sangre is as familiarly esoteric as Jodorowsky’s other efforts, but it possesses very pronounced influences.

Mr. Jodorowsky offers a very polished game of interpretation. His eccentric film relies on the viewer's willingness to play along.

Top Critic[A] wild explosion of movie madness that culls from Freud, Jung, and surrealism to create a bloody circus of the mind.

Fascinatingly perverse artsy horror film
08/26/02
As it stands, it's too pretentious and undisciplined to recommend it to anyone other than hardcore art film fans.
02/13/01
The result is nonsense of a very extravagant, alienating, private sort.

Top CriticThe quality that Jodorowsky has above all is passionate sincerity. Apart from his wildly creative style, apart from his images, apart from his story inventions, he has strong moral feelings.
