I met Kenneth in Melbourne, many years ago. He is a fascinating, uncompromising artist, and he has made some beautiful films, which are quite rightly not dependent upon the general public's appreciation.

[@time2see192]

Demons definitely show through...some quite acutely, while others transform a face over time, yet still leaving the host face recognizable. Its quite fascinating, and foolishly evident. For many, its blatantly evident in only the eyes, while for others, including Anger, there is an all over creep factor that reveals what is truly inside. While sometimes this can only be seen for those with eyes to see, other times the demon makes itself obvious to even those with zero spiritual or supernatural awareness, and even the total lack of discernment cannot deter the hairs when they involuntarily stand up on the back of the neck.

I feel very sad for Kenneth. He is not far from discovering the true revelation of rebellion and all that it brings. I wish I could talk with him for 72 hours and pray with him before his end on this earth. Jesus Christ said "What will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul? For the Son of Man will come in His Father’s glory with His angels, and then He will repay each one according to what he has done. May you reach out to God, Kenneth and receive His blessings and eternal life in heaven.

[@marcusvaughn7019]

@@pauline9580 Hi Pauline, I really do understand where you're coming from. I had a similar background to Kenneth, being gay, into the occult and counter culture, arts, music etc.. I love Kenneth and I love you too, even though I know nothing about you. God opened my eyes to what is coming upon the earth, and because of Kenneth's age, I am only expressing my concern for him and his afterlife. I wish you both God's love, grace and blessings. I came from where his is, so I know. Stay strong, and God bless you too. Tough times are coming as was predicted by Christ 2000 years ago. The gods of old are returning, but this time they will claim to be interdeminsional beings (aliens), but are in reality the fallen ones of old. Just look at the state of our world, soon a cashless society as predicted, and replaced with sub-dermal implants used for banking, IDs and medical records. It starts with the "Great Reset". I am related to Albert Pike, Albert Mackey, and much of my family was involved in the occult with Celtic, Viking, Anglo-Saxon, and Knights Templar, and royal bloodlines, all the way to present day. All I can really say one paragraph is; study, do your own homework, and seek out the truth. That is; God so loved the earth that He gave His only Son to redeem humankind, to have everlasting life. He stands at the door and knocks, and ANYONE who asks, He will forgive and receive them into His kingdom, free from works or self sacrifice. I love you and wish you all my best in your search. Take care of yourself Pauline. 👍

[@pauline9580]

@@marcusvaughn7019 I appreciate your sentiments and your kind words. I believe in the great reset also but that's more about David Icke than God for myself... Kenneth has always been a bit intriguing to me I guess that's because I have researched alot of Aliester Crowley.. (I have a piece of the oratory where he preformed the Abramelin ritual, at boleskine house) I do not do rituals or dabble myself but I like to call myself a researcher in the occult. I do have some spiritual beliefs but I'm not sure it would be the religious version of God. Blessings to you.

This is a well done film. Sad that Anger continues to live off very feeble accomplishments. There is actually a podcast ongoing at the moment, YOU MUST REMEMBER THIS, which debunks the entire HOLLYWOOD BABYLON horseshit. Anger is handled by counter culture groupie Brian Butler and while he should be respected in retirement he remains an acquired taste.

[@dannyfenris7708]

"Sad that Anger continues to live off very feeble accomplishments." What on earth are you talking about? The man's proved his visionary genius with film after film. Hundreds of artists and directors "live off" far more slender bodies of work.

[@raygordonteacheschess5501]

I met Mr. Anger briefly in 1984 and concluded, at the time, without the internet to verify anything, that he was clearly a creative type, that his work was quite legitimate and unique, and that as a gay director, he would have known who was closeted in Los Angeles and who wasn't. Anger made a "gay" film in 1947 when doing so meant arrest, so he was definitely pioneering, and Martin Scorcese himself credits Anger with influencing his style of using full-length pop songs in soundtracks. I would not call his legacy "feeble," though I personally think it is presently incomplete.

[@bobisu3111]

Agree

[@Mytube777]

“Counter culture groupie” hahaha one could add a few other words to describe him too….. and yep most of Hollywood Babylon is lies but he supposedly did the books to fund his films thus he had to make them juicy.

[@littleghostfilms3012]

You are not going to get away with dismissing his films as feeble accomplishments. He is almost singularly responsible for launching the independent film movement along with Maya Deren. And he pioneered the format for music videos decades before anyone else. He took the aesthetics of silent films and blended them with the cultural sensibilities of the 40's, 50's, 60's, tackling homoeroticism, rebellion, mythology, occultism, pop culture.He interacted and worked with many of the major figures of 60's counterculture, Marianne Faithful, Mick Jagger, Jimmy Page, Bobby Beausoleil, as well as Aleister Crowley, Anais Nin, and countless others. There is no one who has ever made films anything like what he did. You may not get that, that's okay. But nonetheless, they are masterpieces of his vision.
