Maybe I was wrong to hope for anything at all from a picture called "Alice In Acidland" released in 1969, but, jeez, does this movie suck. It's a grindhouse exposé about a nice girl who falls in with the wrong crowd and starts dropping acid and smoking pot. Naturally, bad things happen after that. There's no spoken dialogue, just a lot of doom-heavy narration dubbed over some awkwardly staged softcore scenes. Most of it's in black and white and looks like something from well before the era of love beads and bell-bottoms. The color sequence that kicks in toward the end looks like the work of another filmmaker. Not a better filmmaker necessarily, just a different one.
