Trivia / The Holy Mountain

• Corpsing: As The Alchemist commands the film camera to zoom out to reveal the film crew, Axon of Neptune's actor begins chuckling.
• What Could Have Been: Originally, George Harrison was going to be cast as The Thief. However, he refused to show his anus getting scrubbed on camera and Jodorowsky refused to remove the scene. It is also rumored that John Lennon was considered for the role. Given that the two of them were big fans of Jodorowsky's previous film El Topo, this is rather unsurprising.
