Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) 1st time in a film?


Just wondering if anyone else knows how many films the drug DMT was referanced in?

This one, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, and new for 2009 "ENTER THE VOID" its from irreversibles director!!! WOW this one was a wild ride. just wondering if the drug was the topic of any other film?

Probably yes. In the drug movies of the 60s and early 70s, street slang would have been used, not chemical names.



There, daddy, do I get a gold star?

I don't remember DMT in Fear and Loathing... in which scene was that?

I probably isnt mentioned as much as we think in the 60´s hip movies. Its not a party drug, actually the opposite. You just cant do anything but lay down...and experience another universe. Not like acid!
