Many activities are amplified for the better when you're tripping on magic mushrooms, and watching trippy movies is definitely near the top of that list.
Shrooms provide consumers with an almost otherworldly experience: one where colors are brighter, music is magical, and everything is open to a seemingly unprecedented interpretation.
Tripping on shrooms tickles your senses, and can be sensual, spiritual, cathartic, or a combination of all three. And when you apply all of this to a film that already feels otherworldly on its own merit, it can either be amazing or tremendously overwhelming.
There are quite a few movies that feel like they were designed to be viewed while tripping, but it's important to know yourself first, and make sure you're in a good headspace before diving in.
Before you embark, keep an eye on your set and setting, surround yourself with people you love and trust, and be intentional about your dosage. Once you have all of that covered, feel free to immerse yourself in a cinematic universe as intense and larger-than-life as the psilocybin moving through you.
Trippy movies are a unique genre that can transport you to new dimensions, challenge your perceptions, and expand your consciousness. These films often feature vibrant visuals, abstract themes, and immersive storytelling, making them the perfect companion for a psychedelic experience. Whether you’re a fan of animated films, documentaries, or live-action movies, there’s a trippy movie out there for everyone. In this article, we’ll explore some of the best trippy movies and series to watch while under the influence of psychedelics. Get ready to dive into a world where reality bends, colors pop, and every frame feels like a work of art.
Some movies just feel like they were created to fuel a psychedelic experience, and The Bluntness has gathered a list of the best trippy movies to turn to when you’re in that state of mind.
Imagine watching these films as they take you on a visual and emotional journey unlike any other.
Whether you’re in the mood for a psychological deep dive, a science fiction odyssey, or just some really weird shit, we’ve got you covered with the perfect film to turn on while you tune in and drop out:

Whether you’re in the mood for a psychological deep dive, a science fiction odyssey, or just some really weird shit, we’ve got you covered with the perfect film to turn on while you tune in and drop out:
Most of us watched The Wizard of Oz as kids – it’s one of those films that just feels like a rite-of-passage for childhood. For many, The Wizard of Oz was their first movie experience that left a lasting impression, making it a perfect choice for a trippy rewatch. The musical fantasy film follows Dorothy and her red ruby slippers as she travels through a technicolor world filled with Munchkins, wizards, and witches, Good and Wicked.
As children, we likely didn’t think twice about the trippy element of this film, but we encourage you to re-explore it as a shroom-consuming adult. From the musical numbers to the subtle moral lessons to the incredible costumes, you’ll be mesmerized from start to finish.
If you're in the mood for a little science fiction, we suggest accompanying your trip down the shroom rabbithole with the original Matrix movie. The film depicts a dystopian future in which humanity is unwittingly trapped in a simulation.
Designed to make you think (and question reality), this reaction is only amplified when you're tripping. Just make sure you're in a healthy headspace to second-guess everything you know.
This Tim Burton take on a Disney classic is as trippy as you might imagine – it is Tim Burton, after all. The dark fantasy takes the plot of the original and runs with it, leading viewers into a visual dreamland well within the Burton-verse.
The whole movie feels like a dream sequence, making it an ideal choice for a psychedelic experience.
The film is beautifully weird enough on its own, but paired with shrooms? Next level.
If you're in a giggly mood but still feel like questioning the point of the universe, tune into The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, a science fiction comedy that imagines life in the galactical world of Betelgeuse.
The film is sure to have you thinking about life beyond humans – something we all love to speculate on, even without the aid of shrooms.
This musical film, which repurposes the work of The Beatles in an imagined world that takes place during the countercultural revolution of 1960s America, is absolutely epic.
Much like the influence of Pink Floyd on psychedelic music, Across The Universe offers a visually and musically rich experience.
Starring the enigmatic Evan Rachel Wood, Jim Sturgess, and others, viewers also enjoy cameos by Bono and Joe Cocker, and generally makes you feel like you’re on drugs even while sober. Take this Vietnam War-era masterpiece to the next level with some magic mushrooms, and get ready to be amazed.
Keeping in the theme of epic musical fantasies, the 1986 film Labyrinth brings the best of George Lucas, Jennifer Connelly, David Bowie, and the iconic, irreplicable era of the '80s.
Jennifer Connelly is on a quest to the center of an otherworldly, enormous maze, to rescue her infant half-brother from the grips of the Goblin King – a.k.a., David Bowie. Yeah…we feel like we're tripping already, too.
Feel like you’re not in a place to follow a heavy plotline? Now’s the time to turn to a film that is free of dialogue and filled with beautiful international imagery: Samsara.
Following the theme of 1992 film Baraka, Samsara explores the world’s wonders in 70 mm format, including 25 different countries filmed over a span of five years. Similar to the film Waking Life, Samsara explores profound themes through its stunning visuals. Get lost in our big, incredible world from the safety of your own home, and with the aid of shrooms.
Based on the book of the same title, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is an adventurous dark comedy that follows gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson and his attorney through Las Vegas as they trip on psychedelics.
The cult classic is an absolute must-watch if you like to trip – bonus points if you’re doing so while viewing. The whole movie is a rollercoaster of emotions and visuals, making it a must-watch for any psychedelic trip.
Yet another fantastical musical film that seems like it was designed to trip to is The Rocky Horror Picture Show, a cult experience unlike any other.
A straight-edge, newly engaged couple find themselves stranded near a mystical castle, where they attempt to make a call for help. Instead, they become entrenched in the world of Dr. Frank N. Furter, a transvestite alien with an affinity for performing.
If you feel like steering straight into the beast, you may benefit from watching a film about magic mushrooms while you’re tripping on magic mushrooms. Fantastic Fungi is a documentary film that explores biology, roles, and functions of fungi.
Designed to make audiences view mushrooms from an enlightened perspective, the film is captivating and thought-provoking for anyone watching. Much like the surreal world of Fantastic Planet, this documentary takes you on a journey through the fascinating world of fungi.
Finally, one of the most fail-safe genres of film for psychedelic viewing is anything produced by Studio Ghibli. The Tokyo-based animation film studio is known for its otherworldly anime, often featuring the cat-like spirit and studio mascot, Totoro.
The use of classical music in Studio Ghibli films enhances the otherworldly experience, making them perfect for a psychedelic trip.
You can easily get lost in any of Studio Ghibli’s creations, but some of the most notable are Spirited Away, The Cat Returns, Grave of the Fireflies, Ocean Waves, and Castle in the Sky.
If you’re in the mood for a good laugh while tripping, there are several movie options that are sure to deliver. One classic example is the animated film Yellow Submarine. Featuring the music of The Beatles and a fantastical underwater world, this film is a visual and auditory feast that will leave you grinning from ear to ear. Another great option is the comedy series South Park. Known for its irreverent humor and trippy animation, this show is perfect for those who enjoy a bit of satire with their psychedelics. For a more recent release, check out the movie Bad Trip. This hidden camera comedy prank film follows two friends on a road trip from Florida to New York City, and it’s packed with hilarious and unexpected moments that are sure to keep you entertained.
In addition to the movies and series listed above, there are several other trippy films and shows that are worth checking out. One example is the documentary series Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey. This series explores the universe and our place in it, offering mind-expanding visuals and thought-provoking insights. Another great option is the animated series Midnight Gospel. Following the adventures of a man named Clancy Gilroy as he travels through a dimension called the Chromatic Ribbon, this show is a surreal and philosophical journey that pairs perfectly with psychedelics. For a more surreal experience, check out the film Holy Mountain. A classic of psychedelic cinema, this film is a visual and narrative trip that will leave you questioning reality and pondering the mysteries of existence.
Watching trippy movies can be a unique and unforgettable experience, but it’s important to approach it with the right mindset. Here are a few tips to keep in mind:
