"requiem for a dream" sucks dont even bother, way to disturbing. Did you know they actually made a fear and loathing in the eighties too. It is called "Where the buffalo roam". With Bill Murray

For sheer brainlessness, there's always Half Baked and How High.

And Run Lola Run is a bit of a head fuck...That would be good. Oh, and Lost Highway. I -still- don't get that movie.

apparently that's the point :)

I heard david Lynch said in an interview once that he purposely made Lost Highway just to fuck with people.

there are no visuals in the movie that the audience will see

And also bill murry does a horrible job portraying hunter S. thompson

Johnny depp did a great job as hunter S. in fear and loathing.
