A research scientist explores the boundaries and frontiers of consciousness. Using sensory deprivation and hallucinogenic mixtures from native American shamans, he explores these altered states of consciousness and finds that memory, time, and perhaps reality itself are states of mind.
Editor's Verdict
"Altered States is a psychedelic horror/sci-fi film whose plot focuses entirely on scientific experimentation and consciousness exploration. The 'Holiday Release' noted in the prompt refers to the theatrical release date (December 1980), not the internal timeline or thematic content of the film itself. It fails to meet any of the substantive criteria for a Christmas movie."
