It’s almost unfair to try and describe the plot to this Alejandro Jodorowsky film, because the story is just too bizarre. But here goes: A circus ringmaster is caught cheating with the tattooed lady by his wife. She kills him, but not before he cuts off both her arms. The son who witnesses all this is so traumatized he ends up in a mental hospital. Years later, his armless mother finds him and helps him escape. They soon get together — literally — to perform on the stage. It isn’t too long before the bodies start piling up around them. It’s weird and, in it’s own way, wonderful.
