About the event

Psych-Out Cinema: FEAR AND LOATHING IN LAS VEGAS (1998) - New Restoration!
PSYCH-OUT CINEMA is a new special event series at The Revue dedicated to the trippiest, most mind-bending films ever made.


From hallucinatory visuals and kaleidoscopic soundtracks to the paranoid thrillers and cult oddities that defined the psychedelic era, this series explores movies designed to melt your mind and expand your senses. Expect a mix of cult classics, hidden gems, and cinematic head-trips from the ’60s, ’70s, and beyond!

4K RESTORATION!


FEAR AND LOATHING IN LAS VEGAS is the perfect movie to kick off the inaugrual event for Psych-Out Cinema at The Revue.The movie premiered in 1998 and is a fun filled dark comedy based on the novel of the same name by Hunter S Thompson. The movie stars Johnny Depp who plays Raoul Duke, a fictionalized version of Thompson himself and Bennico del Toro as his attorney Dr Gonzo. The film follows them as they drive a red convertible with a suitcase filled with drugs across the desert to Las Vegas. Once in Las Vegas the consumption of drugs only escalates into a hallucingenic three day binge.


Director Terry Gilliam brings the novel to life. Gilliam's intention was that the movie should feel like a drug trip from beginning to end, and in this he suceeds. Along with cinematographer Nicola Pecorini, the two use flourescent neon colours and lighting to convey the effects and halluctionations of the various drugs.The soundtrack is a mixture of 60's and early 70's rock and fits perfectly into the movie.


FEAR AND LOATHING is a fun filled journey into the world of psychedlic cinema guarnateed for the audience an enjoyable night at the movies! (TERRY O'FLAHERTY)

Presented in partnership with Purple Tree Cannabis.
