Watching This Film Makes You Hallucinate

The Flicker (1966) is one of the strangest experiments ever put on film. After reading reports that it made the audience hallucinate, obviously I had to see it for myself. Directed by Tony Conrad - an artist with a math degree from Harvard University, the film has no story, no characters, no plot - but just 30 minutes of black and white frames flashing at very specific frequencies and a soundtrack built from homemade electronic instruments. If you plan on seeing it for yourself, PLESE be careful and immediately stop if you feel even a little bit off. ___ Let's be friends!
