While not directly druggie, early German Expressionistic films,
particularily Metropolis, have some of the earliest subjective portrayals
of mind-altered states using flashy over-the-top visual signifiers.
Oliver Stone's The Doors has some interesting transitions that sequence

Hi Eric,
Try:
John Hawkins, LSD Wall (1965) clay animation of a trip (with a dedication to
his dealer!)
Storm De Hirsch, Peyote Queen (1965)
Eric Emerson's monologue sequence in reel 9
Jan Kounen's _Renegade_ (based on Moebius' Blueberry comics) has the
most effective coming on moment I've seen anywhere.

Back in the late 60s/ early 70s most TV cop shows included a trip
sequence. The trend culminated with The French Connection 2 infamous heroin
room. Most of those trips were more funny than scary
Some TV series were a trip like Land of the Giants and Puff N Stuff (Which

Certainly there are the bits with the high on speed/acid/booze Hells Angels
and others (hanging about on stage, before the murder,) from the Maysles
film Gimme Shelter and though not a psychedelic drug film, there are few
films that are druggier than Requiem for a Dream and I guess Drugstore
Don't forget to look at things like Cheech and Chong flicks, and other
comedies in this vein, Dazed and Confused, (loosely) Donny Darko, etc.
ok I'm done.

I think there is an important distinction between trippy and drugged.
Drugstore Cowboy and Sid and Nancy I'd call drugged but not trippy.

In high school health class we were shown a film called The Weird World
Of LSD which seemed kind of incoherent to me at the time. Among other
things, I think it explains how LSD can turn you into a chicken. As I
recall the general response of the audience is that everybody wanted to

Zabriskie Point I'm sure Antonioni was partaking at the time.
The Red Shoes is from the 40's and has no overtly drug related
content, but it is one of the most psychedelic films I've ever seen.

The Red Shoes
Easy Rider, the New Orleans cemetery sequence
any number of late 60s-early 70s grindhouse films with drug taking followed by
subjective camera sequences
More (1969, d. Barbet Schroeder)
Any number of 60s-70s rock concert films with sequences of highly subjective
camera to capture the moment

Well, if you're going to reference Red Shoes you have to proffer the
requisite Fantasia. Ultimate druggie film. But Tom wants industrials. But
this is fun anyways. I'd love to see

Thinking about the trope of the trip in the manner lets say Amos
Vogel's Cinema 16 might hypothetically have considered this theme:
I would suggest Tex Avery's King Size Canary (1947) in which an elixir
called Jumbo-Gro allows for a mouse, a cat and a canary to move past
each other in
