Aetherous Posted July 9, 2015 Totally agree about Limitless. Any ideas about the significance of calling that drug "NZT"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
noonespecial Posted July 9, 2015 Totally agree about Limitless. Any ideas about the significance of calling that drug "NZT"? I've never taken that into account...Fish, Fish Hook, Snake. As far as visually portraying the effects of the Work, the evolutionary blossoming of the sense organs, and possibly the pitfalls as well...I don't think another film comes close, the scene with the Light in the apartment hallway had me thinking who exactly was behind this film. It's a must see imo. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
futuredaze Posted July 10, 2015 Alejandro Jodorowski's The Holy Mountain comes to mind. It has a lot of reference to tarot and alchemy, but it is extremely surrealistic and quite obscene in parts. I love the film but a lot of people can't stomach it - it's worth a shot, at least! Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_k8oaeHsnc 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
