There are certain alchemical processes at work here that keep on deteriorating, mutating and benumbing bodies and minds. How the change keeps on changing in its turn as Whitehead would say. Some antrhopologists made an important observation – that there is lots of historians, people researching history and aware of changing historical timelines, but there is few who try to understand the processual nature of things, how one things becomes another and under what circumstances. In a sense this genre breaking of horror, black commedy, supernatural thriller, demonic possession – sez something about the alchemical dabbling of its director that manages to establish these lonely figures not just as figures of pity, of just misguided or heavily medicalized labour force of today.īeing prone to nevrosis and increasing bouts of bipolar trouble (what was previously officially labeled as obsessive compulsive) gets a different urgency by being at the center of transformative and metamorphic processes.

There is no other movie about contemporary alchemy I would recommend more than this one. The cast is notable as it consists of only African American actors, a conscious choice to “take the white people out of the movie” by the director Joel Potrykus. Other notable characters include the Cat Kaspar and a possum. As his mental condition deteriorates the line of what is real and what is not becomes blurred, and as his home kitchen chemistry turns to black magic, he instead summons a demon.The cast only contains two human characters starring Ty Hickson as Sean and Amari Cheatom as Cortez. Sean” is an outcast who isolates himself from society to practice alchemy, accompanied by only his cat. The film was released on the 7th of October 2016 in New York City. The Alchemist Cookbook is a horror film directed by Joel Potrykus.
