Review of Altered States (1980) by Alex Z — 31 Jan 2010
Wow what an extremely strange film! But what a great one! An incredible story about a university professor who encloses himself in a sensory-deprivation chamber and experiments with hallucinogenic drugs with drastic results.
When mixed, the result is deadly and brings the man to a "primitive" figure. I can't explain it too well, but when he does the drugs and the tanks too much, he becomes one of the "first humans".
A very strange film but a must see! It makes you wonder throghout the whole movie what the hell is going on lol! This movie is simply a crazy acid trip lol! The ending was a little too weird for me, but overall, I really enjoyed this movie alot!
