10 Sci-Fi Movies Inspired by Mind-Altering Experiences

"Timothy Leary said it best: "Tune on. Turn in. Drop out." In the 1960s, experimentation with illicit substances became commonplace, especially within underground movements. Hippies rejected the suburban dream espoused by folks in the 1950s. Instead, this next generation embraced open minds, freedom, and altered states.
It turns out, though, all that drug use can really wear a person down over the years, and many famous musicians and artists died too soon from overdoses. The dark, weird side of drug experimentation has since become a popular theme in science fiction movies. The films on this list employ confounding visual imagery and dream-like sequences to show what happens when characters mess around with perception-bending tools and goods."
