Maybe somewhere in the DoD, someone is thinking of setting up an experiment on this.

That video is one of the best and oldest I can remember, from back when you saved videos to the cool videos folder because YouTube didn’t exist yet. Poor guy in the beginning having a bad trip. The soldier throwing the headphones down like “I can’t fucking do this”, cord stretched across the tree, while absolutely laughing his ass off always gets me. I wonder how many micrograms they were dosed with. Ahh, tripping in the woods.

“He himself then relapsed into laughter”

They smell like plastic, metal, complex hydrocarbons, and death.

To be fair, they only develop that hint of death just the once.

Maybe but it would not be the first time to theorize that light doses of psychedelics may increase environmental awareness.

Stoned ape theory has hunter gatherers discover a benefit to grains with trace amounts of ergot i

Not comparable to tripping oc and the experience of smelling mines is far out but maybe there is more to it then just dumb luck.

Richard Stanley was hired to direct “The Island of Doctor Moreau” but was replaced by John Frankenheimer after a few days of shooting. However, Stanley considered the film to be his baby (he co-wrote the script) and didn’t want to leave. So he disguised himself as one of the mutants and secretly remained on the shoot.

You can watch the documentary about the shooting of this B-movie and it’s full of weird details like that. It’s called “Lost Soul: the doomed journey of Richard Stanley’s Island of Doctor Moreau”

Good film. One of the few good Lovecraft adaptations, IMHO.
