Invocation of My Demon Brother

Kenneth Anger US, 1969, 11', 16 mm

The shadowing forth of Our Lord Lucifer, as the Powers of Darkness gather at a midnight mass. The dance of the Magus widdershins around the Swirling Spiral Force, the solar swastika, until the Bringer of Light – Lucifer - breaks through. (Kenneth Anger)

Anger's purest visual achievement (...) a conjuration of pagan forces that comes off the screen in a surge of spiritual and mystical power. It has weirdly compelling imagery, with a soundtrack by Mick Jagger on a Moog Synthesizer that has the insistent hallucinatory power of voodoo. (Richard Whitehall)

A film that no number of viewings will ever exhaust, a film that will always remain a source of mysterious energy as only great works of art do. (Jonas Mekas)
