Well, Groove is hardly a Hollywood production, but it is interesting to see 
spiritual ideas get filtered through pop culture.
 
I'd like to say, though, as a "raver" and techno enthusiast, the entire rave 
scene has been a GIFT to countless people who it has put in touch with their 
spirituality, God, etc.  Techno itself, I think, is a great approximation of 
the astral music that so many people hear, especially when going through a 
k-awakening.  YAY TECHNO!  :)

l'm involved in an art cinema where l live and as a result am able to check 
out films l wouldn't ordinarily pay to see. Such was the case with a film 
we're currently running,  "Groove", which is about some all night party ( 
called a Rave, l believe) in San Francisco in which booze, drugs, hip music 
and sex are on display. 
   Cut to a scene in which a lovely 
young lass is lying prone when a hip guy with orange hair and the usual body 
piercings, looking to make a play for her, comes over and starts to give her 
a massage. After a minute or so, he observes," You're really tight --  man, 
your kundalini energy is all fucked up."   After which she promptly sits up 
and says, " Buzz off asshole!"  After he saunters lamely away she turns to a 
friend and  fumes, " Can you believe that creep? HEY, my chakras are great! 
"    
    
   At which point my loud cackle resounded thru the otherwise silent 
auditorium and frowning young faces looked over at me. l figured to hell 
with  
them, after what l've been thru, l'm entitled to this. (Sigh) ... what would 
we do without Hollywood to give relevancy to the spiritual questions of our 
time ...
