Drug horror movies???

[martyds761]

This does NOT mean the writer/director etc was on drugs during making. What I'm thinking is that the horror was caused from drugs. I can only think of two and they are basically the same.

Dr. Jekyell and Mr. Hyde
Mary Reilly

Can you think of any others?

arrow did a review on a movie called "blood", which involved a woman's blood having addictive qualities to those to drank it.

[Romero&Juliet]

BLUE SUNSHINE
Premonition


^ GREAT genre flicks!

I don't know but I am sure the voodoo flicks have drugs involved.

[Cronos]

Brain Damage

[dr_nocturna]

Altered States ('80) Scientist uses hallucinogens to study past life regression and realities get a bit mixed up...couple of good 'trip' sequences.

Pleasant Screams-Doc Noc

[Cabrini Green]

Jacob’s Ladder – government uses an experimental drug to enhance war techniques, instead it turns the Platoon against each other.

Liquid Sky – weird & cheesy, aliens come to earth to fix their heroin addiction.

Of course there are also bad movies with drug themes like I Was a Teenage Zombie and Nightscare aka Beyond Bedlam.

Could also include to an extent Class of Nuke em High, with contaminated marijuana "Atomic High"

Pleasant Screams-Doc Noc

REQUIEM FOR A DREAM.

[pyscho dude]

I come in peace.

[Antonio]

The Spencer Tracy version of JEKYLL & HYDE, and JACOB'S LADDER! REQUIEM is more of a psychological drama than outright horror, although it did feature horrific moments.

Most definitely Requiem for a Dream

[martyds761]

The Faculty is one I'm thinking about. The aliens couldn't take the drug the kids did. The aliens drug of choice was . . . water... Of course the drug the kids took didn't cause the horror, but helped instead. Strange.

i think "Naked Lunch" qualifies.

[IamNoOne666]

great post Psycho Dude, I come in Peace.

I can't think of many and i can't think of what would qualify.

There was a movie released by Brain Damage films recently called Something Strange Happens At Sunrise, thats probaly wrong but its close, its about vampire mobsters, i thought it was a great idea and a great movie but theres a sub plot with one of the vampires putting his blood in weed and the people who smoked it would become his slaves.

Redneck Zombies, the rednecks drank the contaminated moonshine.

I don't know those movies are pushing it. I really can't think of anymore that anyone else has posted.

DAMN RIGHT IT DOES!!! Great choice there!

[starcat]

it wasnt caused by drugs...but rsvp had some kick ass weed smokin scenes....i consider it the best movie for weed horror!!!

[Lizarrd]

Class of Nukem High

This movie is funny on so many levels...but the Atomic High causes all the mahem in this movie.

[SteveSzyk]

Visitor Q... A large stretch as the film isn't based on drugs but the woman certainly had a drug addiction, which may have had much to do with alot of the latter sequences.

[Cottonmouth]

Scarlet Diva

[MickeyKnox]

Jacob's Ladder no question about it!

[_eraserhead]

Naked Lunch, Requeim For A Dream, and Visitor Q, even though I don't consider these movies to be outright horror, they are if you can count "disturbing" as horror.
