Last night a friend and I smoked quite a bit of pot and then watched Silence Of The Lambs. Two shaking thumbs up on that one! It’s way scarier when you’re high. Waaaay scarier.
What movie is best in this or another intoxicated state? What are your smoke up/drink a lot and watch movies?
I watched some movies and only near the end realized, ‘Oh, I’m supposed to be high!’
Days of Heaven
Nashville
any Terrence Malik film.
That film with Robin Williams and Cuba Gooding Jr that was really sappy but visually great.
I always contended that Fantasia was made for major altered states. It literally is a trip. Cities used to have late night showings of the film for just that reason. I think a lot of freaks became religious because of the final piece, “Night on Bald Mountain”, in that film.
I never watch Dazed and Confused without a couple hits from the old bong. I always catch little shit in that I never saw before. Like Randal’s belt buckle is a fullt operational pot pipe.
I was sitting in the Phantom Ranch bunkhouse living room watching Yellow Submarine after having consumed a hit of acid that was just starting to kick in. A visiting friend of one of my co-workers asked, “Do you want to turn it up?,” and handed me some 'shrooms. Let me tell you, that’s the only way to watch that movie!
I second Pink Floyd’s The Wall, as well as Tommy, Fantasia, and the Three Stooges.
As it did for Pipeliner, Eraserhead came to mind. But now that I think about it, it might be better to save Eraserhead for times when you’re OUT of pot. Then at least you’d have something to watch that would make you FEEL like you were stoned.
