El Topo

A mysterious gunfighter sets out across a harsh desert with his young child, beginning a strange rite of passage. Along the way, he confronts a series of formidable masters and unsettling encounters that push him toward a profound, symbolic transformation, blending Western action with mysticism and surreal imagery.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you’re up for a surreal, mystical Western packed with shocking imagery and open-to-interpretation meaning, similar to The Holy Mountain; Not for you if you want a clear plot, subtle content, or a gentle pace.
