\nRoger Corman, king of b-grade Science fiction, horror, juvenile delinquent and biker movies, tunes in, turns on, and helps create a classic piece of psychedelia. Scripted by Jack Nicholson, and co-starring his future ‘Easy Rider’ collaborators Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper, as well as the always great Bruce Dern (‘The Wild Angels’, ‘Bloody Mama’, ‘Silent Running’), the late Susan Strasberg (with Dern and Nicholson in ‘Psych-Out’ the following year – another psych classic), Corman regular Dick Miller (‘A Bucket Of Blood’,etc.), Luana Anders (Coppola and Corman’s ‘Dementia 13’), and even blink and you’ll miss them cameos from Peter Bogdanovich and cosmic cowboy Gram Parsons.<\/p>\n

Fonda plays a disillusioned director of TV commercials who decides to drop acid for the first time in the hope of finding some meaning in his life. Dern plays his guide. Fonda’s trip includes stroboscopic lights, quasi-medieval scenes including dwarves and hooded horsemen, naked go-go dancers, fast cuts, and his own funeral. Apple juice and a visit to the laundromat also play quite significant roles. This is a must see for anyone interested in 60s pop culture, and is still one of the most entertaining psych movies. Take ‘The Trip’ or you’ll regret it forever!<\/p>\n
