Terry Gilliam movies. Fear and Loathing being the obvious, but I really liked
Brazil and
The Fisher King when I was on AMT and MXE.
Brazil feels like it was made to watch on drugs, it's such a trip. I'm glad I didn't watch it sober. There's so much going on outside of what's appearently going on and I think I would be distracted and confused if I tried to watch it sober trying to make every little message fit and not simply going with it and the feel\atmosphere it has.
The Fisher King was also very cool. Especially the mid-parts where you see how Robin Williams the mentally disturbed hobo is living in what looks like some ancient jungle-dungeon in an abandoned building in the middle of New York city. Really amazing sets, it's like being in a LOTR cave or something only it's in the middle of the city and full of garbage.
He's being all psychotic on the street rolling around in public, mentally in a fantasy world but still having to live in the real one. Strong movie but it looks pretty dated now.
I also think cyberpunk movies fit psychedelics very well.
Blade Runner was frickin awesome with those visuals, and the soundtrack was also awesome.
Especially towards the end in that rainy dark scene( you know, that
one dark rainy scene in Blade Runner) where Harrison Ford confronts Rutger Hauer the cyborg on the roof and hes like "I've seen things you wouldn't believe! etc etc. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in the rain. Time to Die." That part hit me so hard I was convinced he was on LSD while filming.
Repo Man with Emilio Eztevez was also pretty cool, and another cyberpunk movie called
Freejack also with Estevez. Both fun and pretty goofy with Emilio being his usual daft character being made a fool of and dragged into all kinds of mischief.
Other cyberpunk movies worth mentioning
Strange Days with Ralph Fiennes amd Tom Sizemore(pretty dark and has a rape scene, may turn your trip a bit sinister)
Johnny Mnemonic with Keanu Reeves(don't watch this one sober, but be really fucked up and it can be alot of fun, especially on very rushy psychs)
City of Lost Children can be nice, it has a very adventurelike childish feel but at the same time is very creepy. Its also very creepy to watch Ron Pearlman stumble around trying to act in an artsy french movie. Steampunk
Comedies can be alot of fun, but I prefer older ones from the 70s or 80s where the drug and alcohol abuse is barely covered up. I like Bill Murray movies on psychedelics, some of them atleast.
Caddyshack being the best of em I think. I could really relate to the gopher-chasing, face-chewing wierdo Murray plays while I was tripping.
Meatballs More of a family\teen camp movie, but it has some hilarious moments and lots of wacky improvization. Bill Murrays character is called Tripper in the movie and he acts like hes tripping most of the time.
Animal House Early comedy with among others John Belushi. Lots of drugs and drinking and partying. Feelgood movie.
Three Amigos Great classic western comedy with Chevy Chase, Steve Martin and Martin Short. Nothing to do with drugs really, just alot of fun.
Tommy Boy &
Black Sheep Chris Farley and David Spade. Pretty dumb predictable comedies but I like Chris Farley. Don't know why but these movies feel so familiar, like utterly predictable 90s crap but its like a memory from the time I was a kid. High personal nostalgia factor I guess. The crazy cocaine-fueled rampages are also fun, where things just escalate and escalate until he's yelling and ranting undecipherable words while tearing down the room. Other Chris Farley movies worth mentioning are Beverly Hills Ninja and Almost Heroes with Matthew Perry but here you really gotta be a fan because these are bad movies.
Blues Brothers John Belushi and Dan Acroyd. Cocaine Cocaine Cocaine. Good music, some funny moments and more cocaine.
Some Steve Martin movies can be pretty fun.
Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid is my favorite. It's basicly Steve Martin making his own film-noir by mixing together his own footage with clips from old noir movies from the old days. Dead serious noir dialogue answered by straight faced dead serious jokes from Martin. Makes for some gut-wrenching laughs if you can catch some of the jokes as they come flying at you ten at a time in a 100mph.
Leslie Nielsen movies like
The Naked Gun movies can be hilarious. He's made alot of movies though, some funny and some not so funny. Some have a really skewed jokes-to-"dirty-old-man" ratio. Earlier ones seem better.
Airplane is a classic I guess.
Wes Anderson movies can be pretty cool aswell, atleast on mdma-like lovey dovey drugs.
There's allways someone looking for some spirituality or human truth in a modern busy life, and generally lots of cutesy content. Full of heartfelt and carefully humorous moments
The Darjeeling Limited
The Royal Tenenbaums
Goin' South Sleazy western made by and starring Jack Nicholson. Jack Nickolson plays himself as an asshole and there's this cute young girl offering to somehow save him from the gallows by marrying him. Lots of drinking and poorly covered drug-use. It looks like they were having alot of fun making it. Except for the girl she looks uncomfortable.
Easy Rider Road movie with Peter Fonda, Dennis Hopper and Jack Nicholson. Two anti-establishment bikers travel across the USA after a drugdeal. A movie about freedom if I ever saw one. They pick up Jack Nicholson, again a despicable asshole and drive off. They supposedly used alot of drugs while filming and has what I think is the most realistic LSD tripping scene I've seen in a movie. Very very cool movie.
Got a bit carried away here I guess but I loves my movies. And yes I wrote "also worth mentioning" way too many times

Spaceballs
Hot Shots
1 &
