Before he made The Fisher King, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and 12 Monkeys, Terry Gilliam took us on a bizarre and whimsical ride where you experience meeting the king of the moon (who is sometimes just a head), falling through a hole and ending up on the other end of the earth, being chased by the angel of death and flying away in an air balloon constructed out of women's underwear.
