Any movies with Buddhist, Shinto, Hindu, or other orientalist themes? Preferably something to watch while high on magic mushrooms or on LSD, so as to get lost in a fantastical ancient East and imagine oneself as a part of it

Don't know. Maybe the Princes of India drove him and his ilk out. He followed merchant caravans on the Silk Road given they'd be guarded from bandits, and they just happened to take him Eastwards; towards where the sun rose.

Running on Karma. Andy Lau plays a former monk turned bodybuilder with the power to see people's karma. He befriends a policewoman and help her catch a killer but is dismayed at the fact that she is fated to die. It's a Buddhist parable about karma that builds to a very touching ending.

>Older stuff is too esoteric
Honestly, I prefer the older stuff. I feel like the newer stuff is much too...anachronistic. Its like the medieval fantasy media these days which all fare a fighting woman in pants or never have spears and shields. Just doesn't seem right.

Why didnt you bump my thread on /his/, OP?

Monkey Magic though it's a Japanese TV show from the 70s.
It's basically a monster of the week show based on "Journey to the West" which partially intends to educate children with buddhist wisdoms.

There's a video called Codex Pajeet going around you might be interested in.
