Episode 25: Altered States

Dave, Devan, Michael and Ryan decide to try out some untested but I'm sure perfectly safe recreational drugs, spend hours in sensory deprivation tanks, and hallucinate some not-weird-at-all imagery before mutating into prehistoric beings while they discuss Ken Russell's 1980 body horror film "Altered States."  The crew discuss this difficult to comprehend but fascinating to experience motion picture, as they explore the rapid fire dialogue, the strong performances from William Hurt (in his debut film role) and Blair Brown, and the striking visuals that permeate the film.  They also discuss other classic cinema that both heavily inspired and were heavily inspired by it.  If you've seen Altered States, let us know what you think of it in the comments section.  Thank you as always for listening!  Stay scared!
