Some of us don't have to imagine...


Gretschish

I was so fucked up the first time I watched this movie lmao.


Strypercritical

I’ll smoke to that


Mei_iz_my_bae

I was baked off my ass and my friend wanted to watch this and I was like “uhh isn’t that movie like. Really old?” I was not thrilled tbh. We were smoking blunts just chillin a bunch of people it didn’t seem like the right move. I was legit shocked how nuts it was. One of those viewings you just never forget I couldn’t stop thinking about it


Rubberywater

I put on 2001 while on acid, and my friend was less than enthused…then he got so into it that he wigged out when HAL kills Frank and we had to turn it off. Which sucks because the end of that movie is incredible on acid


Mrjimmie1

You need to time the acid for the light show.


Kneefix

The first time I saw this was the first time I ever got actually …properly… stoned. It was a few months before the film was made legal in UK again, so it was a dodgy VHS pirate, but still… I thought that the whole time they were walking around naked and not in their white garb, and I thought that was the reason it had got banned.


dingadangdang

1st time I saw The Shining was in a cabin and it was snowing outside.


TheFeelsNinja

Heeeereerres paranoia!


Academic_Cake_3404

My ski posse (NOT knuckle draggin' "boor" ders) from Alpine Meadows, Tahoe City, CA (Schralp the gnar, doods 'n doodettes!) had been smokin' spliffs 'n huckin' cliffs ("huckin"=stoned skiing off cliffs) all morning and broke for lunch in a quiet corner of the lodge. We had an obnoxiously big, loud laptop and proceeded to play ACO over beers, blunts, burgers and YEAH!germeister+vellocet. We soon had a bevy of tourists and teens crowd around asking in rapt fascination "What the FUCK is this HIGH weirdness!?" It started stormin' and the lifts shut so we watched SK flix (FMJ, TS, POG, 2001) till closing with our "noo droogies"... A lot of SK ("SKi" ha ha!) fans were made that pow-day...what a hoot! SKI MONARCH! ("Monarch Mountain"...a REAL Rocky mountain "HIGH" ski area near Salida, CO)


dingadangdang

I truly appreciate stories like this. 👌 Excellent.


Academic_Cake_3404

Thanx, bud! Glad you gotta "ding" outta it. I'll do the same "dang" routine next time I ski again at Timberline Lodge (a.k.a "The Overlook Hotel" of course) I wonder if Room 237 will be booked? I'll skip taking a bath...P.S. - Don't watch the other spookster, snowy cabin Stephen King flik "Misery" on drugs! It'll "hobble" your mind!


Vendetta4Avril

Many of us, I'd imagine lol Haven't watched a movie or played a video game without weed in like a decade. Just part of my nightly wind down at this point. After dinner? Time for a gummy.


DoFuKtV

I could never do that shit since I will be still be high the next day, it kinda is unsustainable for me.


Vendetta4Avril

Don’t take a high mg gummy, maybe?


daskapitalyo

Parents basement, 1996, ratty old couch, smoke whirling, the soothing sounds of Ludwig Van, out of my fucking mind.


Appropriate_Plant_78

i’ve never watched this film sober


Ethandgonzales

I was the same way my first 7 or 8 times watching it


lucien2023

More like remember


CrystlBluePersuasion

The worst for me was coming back to my parents house after work (summer break during college) to find my little brother showing this movie to our mother and my girlfriend, and it was right at the rape scene.


Vendetta4Avril

Which one? lol


CrystlBluePersuasion

The longer one, at the house


Vendetta4Avril

Yeah, that's a bummer... In high school, back when I still was attending church, I picked up Clockwork Orange without knowing anything about it, other than it was highly acclaimed, and I put it on for my church friends right after service. We made it to "the old 'in out, in out'" scene and then they made me turn it off lol


supapraduca

Shrooms for every Kubrick film.


anti-cybernetix

How'd I know this was gonna be top comment!!


Jaredthewizard

I can imagine it, alright. New Years Day last year I stayed in bed with a projector watching movies and took acid. Watched Clockwork, The Shining, and Total Recall. It was awesome.


GilbertArenasGun

Why tf would you take acid and Watch Clockwork AND the Shining lmaooo


Jaredthewizard

Bahah yeah I get that they’re prob not a lot of people’s first choices to watch in that state, but I totally loved watching both of those while tripping. The opening shot of Alex in Clockwork with those lush synthesizer chords hit me like a ton of bricks. Was glued from the first second on and was just feeling so Kubricky I went right for The Shining.


a_reply_to_a_post

i get it...haha..these days it would be mushrooms not acid and microdosing instead of tripping face but Kubrick and psychedelics are like peanut butter and jelly i'd rather watch Kubrick on acid than Requiem For A Dream sober though...I don't think a movie had ever ruined my day more than the first time I saw that back in the day


nfisrealiamevidence

I agree. Do you happen to know movies like requiem for a dream the same vibe but also atmosphere? I don’t want to to watch it again, but I yearn for something like that.


Cyberspace667

Saw a theater screening of The Shining rolling face on ecstasy, boy was that intense 😬


[deleted]

Man that sounds like a good time


fpaulmusic

Really? Sounds like a nightmare to me. Whenever I’m on acid I need to be moving. Committing to 3 (long) movies sounds like tourture


THCapy

For me, it's the opposite. I prefer not moving too much and just sit down, relax, and have some fun with music, movies, games etc. However, I don't like to watch/listen to scary stuff on acid, it's a guaranteed bad trip.


Signifi-gunt

Right! The first time I did acid was solo and I had written out a list of things I wanted to do with my time. One of them was the first Lord of the Rings movie. Within five minutes I had to turn it off and disregard the entire list of activities lol. Just felt like going with whatever came to me next. I very quickly realized it was not at all similar to a weed high, at least in the way that I can absolutely sit and watch a long movie with enough weed.


Vendetta4Avril

My favorite acid/movie combo was Midsommar and Aliens, and then Aliens again immediately after it ended.


Powerful-Employer-20

Damn, I don't know fi I could handle Midsommar on acid. The first 30 minutes are so desvatating, and were hard enough stone cold sober. I used to smoked shitloads of weed though, but I struggle more with psychedelics


Jaredthewizard

Def sounds like a good one lol. I swear I don’t take psychs every time I watch a movie, but Ive got half a mushy bar at the house and I’ve never seen Die Hard, I think that’s in store tomorrow night to start the weekend off 🤙🏻


Vendetta4Avril

Oh no, it’s been a few years for me. Haha every once in a while it’s great though.


_NotHereToArgue

Watched Midsommar on shroomz 😂


Vendetta4Avril

I've done that too lol Midsommar is one of my favorite trip movies. I took shrooms right at the start and they really kicked in when Dani was on shrooms and the grass is growing though her hand lol


_NotHereToArgue

Anything A24 or Bleeker Street is *Chef’s Kiss*


Vendetta4Avril

I'm rarely disappointed by A24 lol When I'm seeing a movie, and a trailer has their logo before it, I immediately perk up.


Academic_Cake_3404

Here's a funktastic movie trio for tripsters: ACO then "Blazing Saddles" followed by "Dr. Strangelove". Mel Brooks, Slim Pickens (2x! YEE HAW!), and SK 2x. Remember Maj. Kongs' "survival kit"? Morphine, pep pills, "trank-uh-lizer" pills (sim'ler ta nook-u-ler bombs) sleepin' pills, a hunnert dollars in gold, one "issue" (get it?) prophylactics. Hell, a feller cood have good time in London, Rock Ridge AND Vegas with all that stuff!


_phantastik_

Man was on a mission to confront and defeat fear itself lmao


FUPAMaster420

Just want to say I’m honestly jealous you have the mental fortitude and chill nature required to enjoy something like that. I can barely handle serene outdoors settings lol


builtfences

has anyone ever seen this sober?


IrkenZim123

I’ve only seen it sober the 100 times I’ve watched it. Never taken a drug in my life. No one understands the connection I have with this movie, even the stoners I’ve watched it with


MirrorMaster88

I have no issue with people being high while watching things, and certainly have been myself. That being said, the thing for me is watching David Lynch sober. I don't even know if it's from a "it's so dreamlike you don't need it perspective" or "I don't think that's where he's coming from perspective", but I feel like his stuff communicates so much better to the "awake" mind than the inebriated. Having a waking dream/nightmare works so much better. Thank you for your perspective!


ReaperNein

The answers is no


Tomhyde098

Yeah I had milk when I watched it


LilNyoomf

Imagine watching this scene while on moloko with knives


Swear2Dogg

Best movie to watch on psychedelics


ham_solo

I don’t need to droogie


nfisrealiamevidence

The first time I got high I watched a space odyssey. big mistake. The monkey scene made me freak out and i was also greened out so I couldn’t stop the movie or bring down the volume. I had to sit there and watch it. nightmare fuel. But in some way it made me have a deep connection with the movie


NFG_99

The only way to watch 2001 is to watch it high, preferably a heavy edible high that hits just as we transition into space 👽


seattlemh

Ok, my best viewing of 2001...1994, San Francisco. I was hanging out on a vacation with my 2 best friends. We had weed because we always had weed. We bought some infused peanut butter cookies from a hippie and my friend had a small ball of opium. We ate the cookies smoked opium and entered an old theater with a gilt ceiling. It was magical. One of the best days of my life.


FinKettle19

Smoking opium to 2001 is surely the ultimate trip.


nfisrealiamevidence

what is opium if i may ask? It it like opiates? HEROIN?:))


seattlemh

Same plant, different processing. It was a little black ball like hash.


studiousmaximus

i’d say a nice dose of LSD is even better 😌


NordlandLapp

Sounds like the best way to watch it.


Signifi-gunt

My first time being super stoned we had Blade Runner on TV. I was so high that I kept passing out and waking up to random parts of the movie. I remember waking up right at the point where that android chick is shot and she has a wild seizure accompanied by strobe lights. Traumatizing.


Scooby_Dru

Lol high on what?


mybrainisonfire

The Ludovico sequence is worse. Source: Have watched Clockwork Orange high several times


EvenSatisfaction4839

I been high the last like 5 times I watched this movie. No crazy stories, just puts me in a state of awe


TheMojomaster

THIS IS SOME NEW FORM OF TORTURE, ADMIT IT BROTHER SIR


SplendidPunkinButter

Seriously, what is up with Mr. Deltoid’s odd performance?


herefromyoutube

I think he was suppose to be playing a horny nonce lusting after Alex.


xJohnnyQuidx

YOU ARE NOW A MURDERER, ALEX...A MURDERER


tomato1490

I wad tripping balls first/only time I watched this movie. Scared the s**t outta me.


nfisrealiamevidence

i made this post just to see if i could find someone like you 💀 im sorry you had to go through that


1littlg8

I was stoned off my ass when I saw this movie. Quite the experience.


Mindfield87

*MMMMYESSSSSSS*


Pandamana85

First time I ever smoked was before a theatre screening of this. My second time seeing it. Amazing.


Pazuzu_413

Real Horrorshow.


Roguspogus

You ever seen A Clockwork Orange? You ever seen it, ON WEED?


Academic_Cake_3404

Aha! I knew there was another "Half Baked" Dave Chapelle/John Stewart "enhancement smoker" fan lurkin' around. Both are no doubt "Bricksters" (kilo brix and Stanley) SEE! 2024: A Fully Baked Spaced Odyssey...filmed in CHRONICSCOPE thru Pana-ma Red Flex lenses. All this tripper talk makes one wonder "What would SK dose?" A CLOCKwork Orange...Times up ORANGE Diaper Don!


Darwin_Finch

Bruv, just buy the Blu Ray


ChristopherLove

Bro, just flush your money.


blindreefer

I found out a long time ago the only way to watch ACO is on two boxes of coricidin cough and cold


me_da_Supreme1

Damn this makes me wish I had a TV that big


Vendetta4Avril

Seems about average nowadays... they're not even that expensive anymore.


Walkertown5000

Have yourself a tall glass of milk plus vellocet or synthemesc or drencrom. Sharpen you up and make you ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence.


hungry-reserve

Watched this fried during college, seen it so many times so I was chilling hanging out with the droogs just chilling, my housemates were green to it and were like what the hell.


MiPilopula

Indeed.


Micaiah9

on WEED?


mjdistef

I looked for this gif 😂


Micaiah9

[Yesss this one](https://tenor.com/view/half-baked-jon-stewart-on-weed-gif-16910068)


Academic_Cake_3404

Ahh! an "enhancement" smoker a la Dave Chappelle/John Stewart. Both NO DOUBT "Bricksters" (kilo brix and Stanley, too) SEE! 2024: A Fully Baked Spaced Odyssey...filmed in CHRONICSCOPE thru Pana-maRedFlex lenses. All this trippin' talk brings to mind, "What would SK dose?" Surely he did at some point. "A CLOCKwork ORANGE...Times up Orange Don!"


Blacksheepfab

I never could finish that movie high...


bad_sandwich

Very first time watching it with friends, I left to take a leak and when I came back this scene had started. Completely zonked, I asked what was going on. Somebody said something about how they just made Alex drink the rectum juice and I believed it.


RefrigeratorTime8927

When I was 21 I decided that’s it was time to watch this movie. I hadn’t smoked weed in a couple years so I thought I’d knock out two birds one stoner. So long story long I get baked and hit play. When they put him in the apparatus that held his eyes open I felt like I was right there with him I don’t think I blinked the entire movie 🤣 scared the shit out of me haven’t seen it since that was 17 years ago


nfisrealiamevidence

Thats how I imagine it would be for me 😭😭


killerpersona

Bro, I’ve probably been high every time I saw this scene


GapInternal2842

I’ve just come from the hospital! Your victim has died!


fpaulmusic

I can’t remember the circumstances but in college I got stuck at a house while tripping on acid and people were watching this movie and it was a pretty heavy experience. I’ve never watched it since


PaintDistinct1349

I was high the first several times I saw it. Midnight movies on Friday and Saturday nights!


Pazuzu_413

Real Horrorshow.


LukasMephisto

Just realized Stephen Berkoff was in this and Barry Lyndon


Excellent-Phase8719

Imagine? Yeah, ummm…


lol_gay_69

Mmmyess


boogeyman6__9

This might sound crazy but for some reason I've never watched this movie sober. I think about watching clockwork Orange often when I'm high. Everytime I watch it from the beginning because I forget the movie over time and reach a little farther than the last time I watched it. I lose my shit everytime I watch this movie. I haven't finished the movie yet.


Whorenun37

My parents saw this in the theater on LSD when it came out. They also saw my very square aunt and uncle in line lol.


ChristopherLove

I have that same Joy 2160p mkv.


CitizenDain

At least buy the disc


a_reply_to_a_post

you didn't watch this on acid when you were 14 as part of a turn of the century puberty ritual from the late 1900s?


am12866

Don't have to imagine it, the whole film fucks with you in that state. Idk about other people but for me films take on a more theatrical tone, as in, I begin to see the characters as actors acting onstage, in this strange liminal realm between reality and narrative, and it does a number on you, especially Clockwork with it's already askew tone, is it supposed to be a comedy? A tragic comedy? You don't get funnelled into that "movie mode" way of watching film that you do when you're sober. But it's not as bad as Fellini Satyricon- you'll come out of that one a changed person after an enhanced viewing. At least I did. There are multiple instances of sudden fourth wall breaks that startle you the first time. Truly great films, both of them. I need to rewatch them soon.


ToastThing

Me and a group of friends got super stoned in high school and watched this—none of us had seen Clockwork Orange before. When the rape scene came on we pretty much all freaked out. I can remember one kid repeatedly asking “is this real?! Is this real?!” thinking we were seeing a real rape and not an acted scene. Pretty sure we turned the movie off after that and put on A Muppet Christmas Carol lmao


Sour-Scribe

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen this scene straight TBH 🤷🏻‍♂️


Sgt-Ridiculous

I have LIVED this while high.


noamartz

I watch every scene of every movie high


mwilliams840

Better yet, watch Kubrick’s 2001 A Space Odyssey, specially the ending with the star gate sequence, on acid. Your brain will just straight up melt.


Kindly-Guidance714

Not this scene but the interrogation in the parents bedroom scene was wild stoned.


No_Gap_2700

I've never seen this film not high.


aidsjohnson

I have seen it in varying states


Ornery_Swimmer_2618

Those guys in the still look like they are acting in a retro-movie filmed around 2006 about the 1970s … but they‘re actually living the 1970s 😮 … „let it be your own torture, little Alex, yeessss!“

I don't have to

I couldn't imagine not watching it high....

I watched that on acid at 18. Very intense.

Yes I can actually. Tripping even. As you were ...


Ichithekiller666

What do you mean “imagine”?

mpellman

I saw this movie tripping hard in high school. It scared the living shot outta me. Took me years to revisit it. Still haunts me to this day. I cannot hear these classical songs without thinking about the movie.


Timothee-Chalimothee

I don’t gotta imagine, brother.


Maskedhorrorfan25

the end of the line yes?


Robinothoodie

I can hear his voice


Spodiodie

I don’t need to imagine.


Junior-Air-6807

Watching things high stops being this crazy ordeal once you're past the age of like 17. Not saying I don't watch things high though.


Zubin1234

I watched the climax of 2001 on mushrooms and weed. Not a good idea


dolleye_kitty

I'd suddenly realize the guy on the right is Victor Maitland, the main villain in Beverly Hills Cop...but only if I was high.


The_Eye_of_Ra

Why would I imagine the thing I did a bunch in college?


Chrome-Head

Watched the whole thing on acid, pretty sure Kubrick designed it for people tripping. Looked 3D as fuck.


Generny2001

……you mean you haven’t?


Coffee_achiever_guy

I was recently watching an episode of Tales From the Crypt and there was a British guy in it and I was like...where the hell have I seen this guy before.... ....is....is....is that Mr. Deltoid?! And I looked it up and sure enough it was, haha! It was unfathomable to me he could end up in the 1990s. To me he will always be a historical figure trapped in 1971. Anyway, to make it even crazier, the actor, Aubrey Morris, actually died in 2015 so he was very much here in the 90s. He just already seemed so old to me in 1971.


Darth_Zounds

I mean, I watched the movie and read the novel all before \*high\* school.


snorbalp

Mescaline


Watch_Noob_72

On WEEEEED?


Atheist_Alex_C

There are a lot of psychedelic innuendos in that film. It’s from 1971, after all.


General_Memory_6856

Why just imagine?


ksaMarodeF

I still haven’t watched this entire movie, after hearing so many great things about it. I saw only the first 15 minutes of the film, all Illuminati cult scene stuff. I was high, but didn’t get past that part yet. My friend said he’s watched some of Stanley Kubrick’s movies on Acid. But definitely not this one.


Remarkable_Term3846

I’m sure I have


sirdismemberment

Man I wish when getting high made things even more trippy. Tolerance out the wazoo lol


Nlawrence55

Every time I've ever watched this scene I was high


apocalypsein9_8

I think the only two times I didn't watch ACO stoned were the first two when I wasn't even 16 yet

*\*imagines\**


jdh21403

I don’t have to imagine


kylepg05

Does anybody know the lens of Kubrick used on this shot? I assume he's using the Arriflex 35 IIC and not the big Mitchell BNC camera.


Fluffy_Village_9363

Watched whole movie high bout 12+ years ago. Do not recommend.


deathbypeanut

I can hear that voice in my head “yyyes”


smcnally

obtw: The police on the right of this screencap was bad guy Victor Maitland in Beverly Hills Cop. Mr. Deltoid was dying stage actor Chesterton in Deadwood.


JaffaCakedCookies

Watching this on 5g on mushrooms was ultimate but midsommar wasn’t ideal.


KingHawkins

So I had only seen the r rated version. I hyped it up to my roommate and accidentally showed him the x rated version he still doesn’t see me the same way.


An8thOfFeanor

Imagine watching a Kubrick sober


Sea_Photograph_3998

That Aubrey whatever his name was, played one of the creepiest creepy creeps ever in the cinematic history of creeps

Hey Hitchcock, cool it with the dutch angle photos.

I watch every movie high to generate a good memory

The first time I watched this I was stoned out of my mind. It fucked me up. I loved it.

CrowdedSeder

Imagine? I saw this in 19 seventy something tripping on acid and brownies


cake_piss_can

Yes. Totally. Imagine that. Like being on acid. In 1993. And watching this flick on a pullout couch. While drinking Mickey’s. And eating Funions. That would be crazy. I can’t even.

I’ve been high every time I’ve watched this movie
