Another vote. Eraserhead. Period. Watch it for yourself, there is none stranger.
It was actually David Lynch's film school thesis.

Good call on Reefer Madness. I saw the movie once in my Psychology class in college, it was funny...dh girlie said:
Deliverance was a pretty wild movie as was "The Deer Hunter."
Eraserhead is no doubt up there -outright disturbing.
TheThin Red Line is trippy if only beacuse it messes with your expectations so much
Ken Russell's Gothic was pretty trippy.
Just watched Ghost in the Shell II:Innocence, which was trippy in that it would have been way better if I had been tripping. Wicked animated graphics, lousy story chock full o' mediocre existentialist philosophy interspersed with references to the bible, Descartes and Confucianism. It is all in Japanese and the subtitiles include things like [birds chirping] and [loud crashing]. Maybe the produces thought the North American audience would not comprehend the sound of Japanese birds, or that when Japanese steel collapses it makes a undecipherable sound ??

No one mentioned Seven? That was pretty disturbing.
Natural Born Killers and A Clockwork Orange
Also Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

How about "The Naked Lunch"(William Burroughs). That will send you trippin'.
Two that I've seen recently are Suspiria and Irreversible.
Baraka is a good movie, stoned or not. One of my friends quit eating eggs and chicken after he saw the conveyer belt scene (he ate one or the other at pretty much every meal before).Changleen said:
Eternal Sunshine, Clockwork Orange, Fear and Loathing, and Apocolypse Now Redux all get my vote.... Oh yeah, "seven" as well...
If you like Baraka see the Qatsi trilogi. Start with Koyaanisqatsi. It's Baraka years before Baraka came out. Godfrey Reggio directs. Music by Phillip Glass.Changleen said:
Highly recommended. Everyone should watch it at least once.

I saw Koyannasqatsi with a live performance of the soundtrack by Philip Glass. It was fantastic! Not what I would call trippy, but eye-opening. Everybody should watch it at least once.
What about Frank Zappa's 200 Motels?
Naked Lunch is wierd, but the book is much more unsettling.

Primer, this movie blew me away. I had to watch it 3 times.
If you watch it be prepared to have to watch it more than once.
Another one is Pi. I really liked this movie.

Gummo isnt trippy, it just F*ked up.....
Twin peaks "Fire walk with me" was a pretty trippy movie....
How about the Kitchen chair wrestling scene?stinkyboy said:
You mean somebody besides me saw Gummo? Distrubing eh?
What about "Kids"? Not trippy just scary from the point of view of me being a suburbanite / farm boy and not accustom to City life.
