THE TRIP (1967). Roger Corman films concerns filmmaker Peter Fonda, who is in a state of flux concerning his upcoming divorce from unfaithful wife (Susan Strassberg) and malaise over his career. Obviously, the best way to handle this is take LSD bought from Dennis Hopper and go on a trip with Bruce Dern babysitting You. After He takes the Acid, the rest of the film concerns itself with what Fonda is experiencing-including Angelo Rossitto (FREAKS, MAD MAX: BEYOND THUNDERDOME) as an evil dwarf and all sorts of panoramic colors. Script is by Jack Nicholson who would be in EASY RIDER a couple of years later withy Fonda and Hopper. And it seems both actors are prepping for ER as the word "Man" ends just about every sentence. Also a good appearance by Luana Anders (DEMENTIA 13 and also in EASY RIDER). ***
