Groovy psychedelic romantisism
Review date: 2004-07-30 Rating: 10 out of 10
Directed by Roger Corman. Starring Peter Fonda as the tripper and Bruce Dern and the californian LSD guide this film is hard to match for psychedelic cheesyness. Filmed in the midst of the Haight Ashbusy Californian psychedelic rollercoaster this film tries hard to convey the archetypal "scene" of sixties.
Crude special effects cant capture or portray the awesome depth and power of LSD but I think Fonda's naked thrashing about captures it just fine.
Summary: Take LSD and get naked for best effects!
Groovy man. Can you dig it.

the superb title music by electric flag sets the scene for one of the most adventurous of cinematic offerings.having been banned for some twenty-odd years it's nice to see this finally appear on proper dvd release.just why it was banned is unknown and seemingly absurd, of course it portrays drug taking with little emphasis on the dangers surrounding such indulgence,but to argue depiction of such behaviour promotes others to follow suit would suggest that all films with any violence or portayal of war should also be banned.if a subject can be conceived it should be allowed to be shown.to try to dismiss a vital part of sixties society would be to mould history in a false manner.besides the beauty of the film renders all objections irrelevant.it offers stunning visuals and great actors.A real slice of psychedelic culture and despite seeming slightly dated, has it's heart in the right place.far out man!
