Trip

About This Movie

So, 'Trip' is this intriguing slice of early '70s counterculture. It’s set in an Austrian hippie commune, and you can almost feel the vibe of the period—the music, the colors, everything just screams freedom and exploration. The pacing is a bit loose, which fits the dreamlike quality of the narrative. It's a fantasy musical, which is kind of a rarity, and I think it adds a unique layer to the experience. The performances have this raw energy that really captures the spirit of the time, even if they don't always hit the mark. Plus, the practical effects are charmingly psychedelic, which definitely sets it apart from more polished productions of the era.

Finding 'Trip' in good condition can be a challenge, as it's not widely circulated. It originally had a limited release, which contributes to its collector appeal. There are a few formats out there, but each has its quirks—like some grainy prints that add to the film's atmospheric charm. It's one of those films that really sparks interest among collectors who appreciate the more obscure corners of 70s cinema.
