Abel Cain


Abel Cain formerly Sons of El Topo is a stalled film project written and directed by Alejandro Jodorowsky. It is being produced and financed by Parallel Media. It is the sequel to Jodorowskys cult acid western El Topo. In a 2010 interview with excessif.com, Jodorowsky said that the film had dragged a long time, and suggested that Abel Cain will not feature any stars, and that he has cast his son Axel Jodorowsky in the lead role just as he did in his 1989 film Santa Sangre, remarking that In Santa Sangre, it functioned as a family. It was expected to be released sometime between late 2011 to 2012, but appears to be shelved so that he may shoot his biopic, The Dance of Reality first. In a Novemberinterview, Jodorowsky announced that he had found financing for the film and would begin shooting the project in September in Mexico after he is finished with The Dance of Reality.

Alejandro Jodorowsky began attempting to resurrect his film career in the midnineties after becoming disillusioned with the business during his poor experience on The Rainbow Thief and attempted to market a sequel to his classic El Topo, and created a teaser poster. Originally Sons of El Topo was to star Marilyn Manson and Johnny Depp, but the funding never materialized and Jodorowsky shortly abandoned the project.Jodorowsky next attempted to make a metaphysical gangster film entitled King Shot, which was to be produced by David Lynch and star Marilyn Manson and Nick Nolte. He drew numerous conceptual sketches and heavily marketed the film to producers, but eventually he and Lynch abandoned the project after they were only able to acquire a portion of the budget necessary to shoot the film and Jodorowsky was given another opportunity to make his dream project. ........
