The Freemason (2013) Presented as a modern day who-done-it, The Freemason is one part detective film, one part murder mystery wrapped in a cloak of mystery and secrecy.

Freemasonry in Cinema – Freemason Information. Freemasonry is a part of the material culture, as its membership is drawn in from those of us who live in it. With that in mind, it is no wonder that it would not seep into the most evident modern art form, the cinema.

But with the new media, the craft has also made its way into the digital age. As the knowledge and ideas of the fraternity permeate deeper still, I’m sure we can come to expect an ever increasing role on the screen. In this section, we will explore the presence of Freemasonry in both the digital age, and in the cinema. This fictional account of proto- history follows the story of a young prehistoric mammoth hunter’s journey through uncharted land to secure the future of his tribe.

The film takes the audience into a proto- Egypt and the construction of 3 great pyramids overseen by a proto Indian/Egyptian priest caste giving a faint nod to the Egyptian mystery schools, which would evolve into the later foundations of Freemasonry and other “secret” orders. In the film, this early iteration of the master builders as religious leaders fall prey to corrupt minds ruling by instilling a fear of sacrifice. In the film astrology was also heavily emphasized as the priest caste made use of a sort of an early telescope that they used to chart the sky and foretelling the destiny of their leader.

It is in this part that an obvious emblem of Masonry appears with a brief glimpses of a compass atop a table (tracing board?) atop the plans to the temple. Read a full review of the film here.

USA, English, Black and White (Comedy). The 2. 00. 8 film Chemical Wedding is a fictional story about the resurrection of the 2. Aleister Crowley.

Written by Bruce Dickinson and Julian Doyle. Best described as a low budget horror flick, Chemical Wedding fulfills every expectation that that description creates: the story line is kind of cheesy, the effects are mediocre, and it features numerous sexual situations. The story of the film is fairly straight forward. A professor of theology at Cambridge University is involved in a virtual reality experiment which goes horribly wrong and becomes the reincarnation of Aleister Crowley. Crowley comes to rebuild the temple in three days and perform a virgin birth. Crowley’s objectives during the movie rely heavily on adaptations of Crowley’s interpretations of the Christian Gospels and the story of Osiris.

He regards the impregnation of Isis by a reed as the greatest form of sex magick and seeks to recreate the event through a chemical wedding with a red- headed woman. Read a full review of the film here. Conspiracy Theory (1.
