Before the 1974 - 1976 projection went stomach up , Jodorowsky ’s production squad for Dune was perhaps the most harebrained who ’s who in film history . Moebius and H.R. Giger were add on to do production designs , Alien writer Dan O’Bannon was in charge of particular effects , Pink Floyd was slated to do the soundtrack , and the cast included Mick Jagger , Orson Welles , David Carradine , and Hervé Villechaize ( Tattoo from Fantasy Island ) . Also , Dalí was to play the Emperor , for a fee of $ 100,000 an 60 minutes .

As awesome as this roll sound , this definitely would n’t be the Dune from the Scripture . The film was going to be in the neighborhood of 14 hours long , and Jodorowsky ( El Topo , Santa Sangre ) did n’t exactly purchase Herbert ’s visual modality of the book . Here are some of the director ’s thought process on the projection ( viaDune Info ):

I did not want to respect the novel , I want to recreate it . For me Dune did not go to Herbert as Don Quixote did not belong to Cervantes , nor Edipo with Esquilo [ … ] I mat up in enthusiastic admiration towards Herbert and at the same meter in conflict ( I think that the same affair come about to him ) … He obstructed me … I did not want him as a technological adviser … I did everything to move him away from the project … I had experience a version of Dune and I wanted to transmit it : the Myth was to give up the literary form and to become Image …

In moving picture , the Duke Leto ( father of Paul ) would be a man castrated in a ritual combat in the arenas during a bullfight ( emblem of the Atreides star sign being a crowned bull … ) Jessica – conical buoy of the Bene Gesserit - , send as courtesan at the Duke to create a missy which would be the female parent of a Messiah , becomes so in lovemaking with Leto that she decide to jump a chain link and to create a boy , Kwisatz Haderach , the Jesus . By using her electrical capacity of Bene Gesserit – once that the Duke , insanely in honey with her , leave her with his sad enigma – Jessica is inseminated by a drop of line of this uninspired valet … The camera trace ( in script ) the red drop through the ovary of the woman and sees its meeting with the ovule where , by a miraculous plosion , it fertilises it . Paul had been born from a virgin ; and not of the sperm cell of his forefather but of his blood …

Even if Jodorowsky ’s Dune was give way to be an unmitigated train wreck , it ’s honest to sleep together that someone ’s bathymetry this lost history .

And if the construct artistry was an indicator , the film would have been absolutely ba - zonkers . Check out the blueprint byMoebius , Chris Foss , and H.R. Giger , who , in all likelihood , used his design for a Japanese stereophony advertizement .
