10 Movies You Didn't Know Contained Illuminati Symbolism

5. The Dolls Are The New Age Illuminati - 9

Another animated movie ostensibly aimed at children but featuring plenty of symbolism for the conspiracy theorist/occultist to spot is 9, Shane Acker's feature based on his award-winning short film. With its PG-13 certificate it was obvious that this wasn't intended for tiny tots, which becomes immediately clear from the post-apocalyptic setting and the dictator which rules over the land. With its self-recreating robots hinting at transhumanism and the presence of homunculi - tied to ancient alchemy - the esoteric references come thick and fast. Alchemy and its ties to occult secret societies - which in turn are heavily featured in Illuminati-based literature - leads some believe that 9 is a reference to the "New Age" of the Illuminati in which humans transition from the old religions to the age of Luciferianism. Or maybe it's simply about the negative effects of technology - the viewer can choose which for themselves.
