Watching horror movies while tripping ...

[BridgeUnder]

Has anyone ever tried this?
I'm just wondering, this is just one of those wacky ideas I have.

well, I once watched a (really cheap) action movie and I couldn't stand it because it thrilled me that much :lol: I think I only saw 5 minutes or something.

and I think it's a bad idea to watch horror-movies on shrooms. go for teletubbies, yay!
nickelodeon in austria has after 12 o clock some trippy stuff. I don't know if you have nickelodeon in vanuatu (in case you are really from there ), but it would be worth looking for. spongebob is great too, I love his faces and grimaces.

but to tell you my opinion: no it's not a good idea.

I once watched a war movie while tripping... I guess an horror movie would be better cause you don't really need to understand much... after watching the war movie I couldn't tell what was the story lol.

If it's a good idea to watch horror movies while tripping all depends on you. For me, that probably would be a good experience. Some other people might get really scared, panic and could mix reality with the movie, which can be really frightening and confusing... do this only if you have solid nerves and like hardcore emotions!!!!

But from that war movie experience I think watching television while tripping just isnt fun... maybe I should give it another try sometime...

it totally depends on the drug and how much you take. not many people want to watch a horror movie on salvia or mescaline. also your reaction to horror movies. some people freak out way more than others when it comes to movies.

I should have said "... as a horror movie fan". In my case, there's not much that can shock me anymore these days. Some of the most extreme stuff I've seen recently were the 3 August Underground movies in case anyone's heard of them.

I also wouldn't do this with a horror movie I haven't seen yet, so that I always know what's about to come on the screen. Maybe some classic like Evil Dead, Hellraiser or The Thing, I find those films kinda cozy now.
Braindead/Dead Alive could be a laugh too! :lol:

I agree with BrigeUnder, a zombie movie marathon would be funny as fuck; especially the older more retarded looking flicks that you used to see when you were a kid etcetera. Not so much dawn of the dead but it could still work just as well.

I don’t think I could watch an entire horror film through because as soon as the trip reaches pack hour, I’m out of the room completely and any excess stimulus would just drive me temporarily 'insane'.
I would like to see some old classics like the alien films or perhaps the predator series and old school 'Arnie' (Schwarzenegger) films.
'GO, RUuun, GET TO THE CHOPPER!!! lmao, hilarious.

One movie I can defiantly suggest is Austin powers; all of them! The best thing about them is that it’s so uniform. EVERYONE is Mike Myers! And being on a shroom or tryptamine excursion would just enhance that uniformity of all things. In a funny ass way to boot!

Peace.

I think that using high power psydrugs and than watching horror movie is waste, but try to watch movie on 2 grams of hasish melted in one spoon of oil and than all mixed in cacao. This is hard stuff. I have become one o the actors in The Blow movie when George Jung is fucked by Diego Delgado and that part when Jung and Diego are braking theirs friendship blow me and scared me to the bones. I was George Jung and, and I do not have words to describe that feeling. Cacao and 2 grams of hash is something else 8)

I've had a lot of fun watching scary movies while high. Not while tripping though. Bad idea for me at least.

 

[BridgeUnder]

I might try it with a light-to-medium dose of Morning Glory in the near future, depends a bit on how I'll stomach the seeds. Anyway I can still change to something else if it gets too scary for comfort.

Although a Troma flick sounds VERY tempting too ...
They're just so stupid it gets funny.

Tripping while searching for devilish influences are giving the strongest mind in return. But you need to build it up discretely.

Horror movies make me laugh when I'm stoned... I seem to notice that everything is soo fake and that is very funny ^^

Well within the horror genre there are various subgenres. I would either choose a classic or an over-the-top horror comedy like Braindead or Shaun Of The Dead. I'd best not get near devil/demon stuff like The Exorcist or The Entity.

Or maybe the old The Fly/Blob or any other black&white horror flick.
OR : get brave/stupid and go for something like Tetsuo. :twisted:

as a horror fan I've had only one experience watching a horror movie whilst tripping (i've watched one of the AUGUST UNDERGROUNDS luckily sober) . So after eating some spacecake we watched rob zombie's " House Of A 1000 corpses" and the death-ride scene which is sorta psychedelic really freaked me out. So I wouldn't recommend seeing this stuff when tripping But if you do I'd like to hear all about it!!
Braindead might be fun as fuck though

Wow Corpses can be a bit nasty, I'll stay away from that!

Or maybe something like this :

Tripping exclusively for euphoria is quite empty, I believe. There is a whole spectrum of emotions that can be mixed and intensified while tripping; I particularily like joy (as opposed to happiness) and horror. I'd probably like watching a horror movie alone at night tripping on 'shrooms, since they are particularirly good at producing panic.

 

[buffachino]

I don’t think it’s even possible to only trip for euphoria. In all my trips, I get every possible emotion, feeling and sensation all at once during the peak; and then in the comedown, a sense of bliss mixed with comfort and love.
You can’t just have euphoria in a trip unless you’re on MDMA in my opinion. But that’s not what I would classify a trip.

I do understand what you mean by empty though. It’s just like taking anything, psychedelic or not, for euphoria and ignorant bliss. Even worse when it’s recurrent, chronic and prolonged without regard for means, purpose and result.
That’s abuse.

Sorry offtopic...

I'd like to get back the same emotions I had when I started watching horror, which is fear, panic and disgust. Now I'm all desensitized which is a shame. :?
Maybe I'll get some of them back while tripping ...
