So that Kafan split isn't being done at all then?
This, the Acrimonious full length and the Kenneth Anger music, Ajna has an interesting release schedule coming up... |

Isn't Kenneth Anger an occultist connected with Crowley or something? I'm sure he made some short films aswell, but I'm certain he's connected with Crowley.
Name is in my head but not entirely certain who he is, though I think I have a rough idea. |

| Anger is primarily a filmmaker, he did a lot of very trippy experimental films using a lot of occult/psychedelic imagery as far back as the early 60s. He has been connected with the Church of Satan for a long time, don't know about Crowley, I think he was dead and gone by the time Kenneth Anger came on the scene. He also wrote a book called "Hollywood Babylon" about sex scandals and controversies in the early days of the film industry. Definitely an interesting and original guy. |

Yep.
Other movies explore quasi-fetishistic topics, for example Kustom Kar Kulture.
There is a film called "The man we want to hang", though, featuring paintings by Crowley at an exhibition in the late 90s.
@Nekrokunt_Usurper
Maybe you mix him up with Kenneth Grant.

| Wasn't Grant involved with the Rolling Stones in some way, and possibly John Lennon? |

| I think Kenneth Anger was a follower of Crowley's teachings, but wasn't a contemporary of his. |
