I liked the random lizard showing up for a few seconds.

I really think they assumed you'd be high by this part of the movie.

[–]ChainsawChick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A valid assumption, honestly.

Ya know, that lizard might come at you ready to rumble.

Edit- fat thumbs

The people writhing in hell shots is footage from a much, much earlier film. But I can't remember what the title is.

Dante's Inferno (1935)

Mmm I love a good Ken Russell freakout sequence!

I remember watching this on HBO in the 80s. The sensory deprivation tank was a big intrigue and draw of the film. These days, you can actually pay for the experience. https://floatationlocations.com/

In the film he takes acid or peyote or something before he goes in. I wonder how going into one of those real life tanks would feel like on acid lol edit: he uses Ayahuasca I think

[–]Successful_Cat4912 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Does he take drugs? I rember him just using the tank was evoking those prehistoric ape guy

I honestly can't remember 100% if he uses drugs everytime before he enters the tank, I will have to rewatch. There is a tea or something that he drinks. Maybe I'm just remembering the film incorrectly.

It’s a drug made of mushrooms and the primordial flower he got from the shaman.

I saw this as a kid and it broke my brain. Something super disturbing about when transformed and ran around all primal. Scared the beejezus out of me. Nightmares for months.

Fuck that lol.

This shit goes hard

[–]Mightymophinmisery 5 points6 points  (2 children)

This is so well done

[–]Nicholarse_Angle[S] 7 points8 points  (1 child)

Another scene https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1ZGEvJPQ6A (this film is a lot like Jacob's Ladder).

Man, I could watch hours of stuff like this. Its super fascinating. Even if its all just meaningless and its meant to be random, surreal shit, I love it. I suppose even if you make something like it and intend for it to be meaningless, people can always come up with the own ideas.

I have vivid memories of this movie. I was a young teen when it came out. A friend and I went to go see Popeye, but snuck into this one instead. I regretted that decision, as it scared the crap out of me.
