Aka: Crowley
A structurally messy but full of good intent British film about the return of The Great Beast 666, Aleister Crowley, fifty years after his death.
Simon Callow is fantastic as the outspoken occultist; he hams it up like a pro. Sadly, the rest of the film is a bit shit. Had pervert extraordinaire Ken Russell been handed the script twenty years ago it could've been turned into something delightfully bizarre.
