The Tripper

Film Description

A bunch of hippies descend on a small woodsy town for a concert, little realising the terror that awaits them - an axe-wielding, Ronald Reagan-masked lunatic, waging a one-man war against drugs. The sheriff tries to control the madness but a corrupt mayor and a greedy promoter insist the free-love festival must go on no matter how high the body count.

A low-budget horror indie given some star clout thanks to David Arquette in his directorial debut and Jason Mewes (aka Jay of Jay & Silent Bob fame) as an acid-happy hippie. There are also some nifty psychedelic special effects and, of course, plenty of gore for those inclined, while Arquette makes fine use of the gorgeous old-growth forests of Northern California.
