I'd say it's not really a "scary" movie. I think "disturbing" is a much more accurate word to describe it. It t trades in dread and existential terror. Yes, it has moments with actual horror movie type imagery, but the overall intent is much deeper than just physical splatter stuff to pay off the advertised horror movie ingredients. What is being mined here is the deeper in us fears, those from which there is no simple stlker/slasher (etc) to be caught and played off the stage. Instead, there are things here that are very personal to every person, things that have no off-switch in reality. The movie ends, but the "horror" continues....IF one thinks about it afterwards for too long. Better, as suggested, is the seeking of the possibilities to seek love than dwell in...the kind of pit that Jessup decided to jump deep deep into .

Love this film. Everyone I knew at the time (and still know) all saw this film. In fact, went back to see it multiple times. I wound up clipping all the reviews, articles etc, and got copy of the original shooting script...and even have a toy model (which illuminates) of Hessup's first ancient deprivation cylinder. And I worked with Ken Russell on one of his last projects and got to chat all about this movie. Thanks for covering it.

There's a reason the audio is bad in parts and it seems like a bad TV movie. The PureFlix movies weren't made for people who wanted to see a good movie, or who would judge it as a film. It's a religious persecution diatribe. As long as the movie is telling the target audience what they want to hear, that's all that matters. Nobody's trying to win an Oscar here. it's like a pretentious Deuce Bigalow.

Yup, that’s where I stand on it. That isn’t to say I don’t like the clone wars or the first order eras, I think in concept they’re all neat, in terms of actual good storytelling it’s ANH, ESB and the first and last thirds of RotJ are decent (which at that point isn’t a whole movie), everything else is take it or leave it. I really do want to do a big Star Wars special again, I have so much more to say now than I did almost ten years ago (or even this at four years ago).

I think it is where MGTOW started. His site is no longer available on the wayback machine. It is also very questionable if the original owner of the site is in control of the domain now. I think he moved to Japan in the early 2000's A whole lot of other forums, blogs and so on have been cancelled, are no longer searchable on Google. And KZbin has done extensive canceling of all manner of content along these lines. In spite of all this there is more red-pill like content than ever now.

Thanks for reviewing this film. I’m a huge William Hurt fan and this and Kiss of the Spider Woman are my two favorite performances of his. The religious hallucination scene is definitely scary, disturbing and gory enough to qualify as horror. The ending of this film doesn’t quite stick for me. Blair Brown is terrific as Eddie’s wife. They have on screen chemistry and you believe them as a couple so when things go haywire you’re invested in her struggle to stop the experiment before it’s too late. Altered States asks some cool questions, has killer effects and visuals and it’s freaky and original enough that everyone should see it at least once.
