This odd little sci-fi/not-very-funny black comedy has a certain appeal until it eventually collapses under its own weight. In the near future when all drugs have been made legal, a douchey biochemist tests his latest concotions on his douchey friends. The movie is mostly scenes of people getting fucked up or being hung over in imaginative and increasingly gross ways, yet manages somehow to be slightly entertaining and not anywhere near as bad as that sounds... not surprising, because it's Canadian, and seems to have that typical Canadian entertainment "slightly better than it should have been" thing.
Unfortunately, though, by the end, it sort of gives up the ghost, disappearing into an inscrutable and unsatisfying montage of psychedelic visuals instead of tying up the story. It's too bad.
