Yeah, it really just showed the true power of LSD to go bad, or teach you things. Depending on how you view things. I have to agree, the movie was a great representation of what happens when things go bad. In fact, this movie could do much to help tripper's reconcile the bad parts of trips if they would pay close attention and solve the problem in a way much unlike the main character of the movie. By the way, he played a great tripping person. He must have had a taste of acid himself, he was spot on. I liked how some of the peak sequences(when he was in the cab) were so constricting.

Not a great film, but I thought the director was being really tongue in cheek - all that stuff about "You must remember LSD is now like cyanide for you" was so heavy handed it couldn't be anything but irony.

I know, I was just razzing you.
