Writer
Sometimes viewed as a companion piece to Lucifer Rising, Cammell’s 1972 short was left incomplete by the director and rediscovered and finished by his editor and close collaborator Frank Mazzola in 1999. The result is a visually stunning piece of work, shot in Bryce Canyon by the great Vilmos Zsigmond in glorious color and Cinemascope, with Myriam Gibril as Aisha the Witch and Kendrew Lascelles as the Director shouting a philosophical dialogue amidst the echoing rock formations.

“Tu és Lúcifer!” Contrariamente ao que transmite a cultura popular de tradição cristã, a etimologia e a história das religiões esclarece que Lúcifer é o “portador da luz”, uma divindade luminosa na antiguidade clássica, a estrela da manhã para os que se orientavam pelos astros ou, numa interpretação gnóstica, aquele que revelou o verdadeiro conhecimento aos homens, denunciando as ilusões do Demiurgo, o falso deus. No cruzamento inter-mitológico esotérico de tradição crowleiana, Lúcifer, o príncipe da aurora dourada, é por vezes associado ao deus egípcio Hórus, uma divindade solar que teria revelado ao próprio Aleister Crowley um novo tempo, uma nova era, o Aión do Aquário, uma época de paz e conhecimento de que ele haveria de ser o profeta.
