Note: I'm not focusing on "stoner movies" like Half Baked, just movies that have stunning visuals that will catch your eye and keep you "in trance".
5) Paprika
Paprika is about a girl detective that can enter in people's dreams... no, it's not Inception. This is an animated movie with some amazing, onirical images.
This image speaks for itself |
I know, I already talked about this movie... but, c'mon, man, just look at this screencap. Also, since this is a slow paced movie, a joint or two may help you to pass it.
Trippy stuff. |
If you don't wanna watch the whole thing and just want to get the best experience, there's a video that synchronizes Echoes, by Pink Floyd, with a sequence of the movie. Here is parte one:
3) Mulholland Drive
Well... anything by David Lynch is quite a trip. And if you don't understand the plot... you can always blame the ganja.
2) Yellow Submarine
It's psychedelic, it's fun, it's light hearted and it has the Beatles music! Definitely worth your flying time.
1) The Wall
Well, this will provide a different kind of trip. A deep, mindfuck kind of trip. But hey! Don't let it be a bad one. This movie has some of the greatest visuals of all time, with the animations by the great Gerald Scarfe and the amazing Pink Floyd music.
That's it. So light a joint and enjoy!
I love yellow submarine, also lucy in the sky. Heh, i also recommend i am the walrus :3
ResponderEliminarI first saw 2001 when I was like 10 years old and I was going nuts.
ResponderEliminargreat list, I love Lynch films.
ResponderEliminarWhat does Floyd and the Beatles have to do with ganja?
ResponderEliminarHaven't seen #5 but I agree with 1-4 :)
ResponderEliminarI'll have to check out The Wall soon
ResponderEliminarI think all of those would be freaky without being stoned o_O
ResponderEliminarcan you review comedies?
ResponderEliminarWilliam: Well, The Beatles had a psychedelic phase that you might relate to drugs. Floyd is pretty trippy too. That doesn't mean that they're music isn't good if you're not stoned, of course, they're 2 of the greatest bands that ever existed, and I love to hear them under any condition.
ResponderEliminarR0cker09: Of course, they're all great per se. I just selected 5 movies that deals with oniric, surreal or psychedelic images.
I need to catch Yellow Submarine
ResponderEliminarI don't think I would watch Mulholland Drive again, regardless if I was stoned, drunk, or tripping balls.
ResponderEliminarSome great films you got there.
