"Genre:Drama" Drama? Jacob's Ladder is pure psychological horror movie, not drama.

@gregallman420 i would tend to dissagree on not being able to overdose on lsd.i know a casualty from my 20's who dropped 24 quads one night at a party,was a bright guy,but now,hes 40,and still lives with his mother and never comes out of his room because he thinks hes an orange and if he comes out,someone might peel him.he spent 4 years in a mental institution before he was stable enought to return home.his life was over that night,true story.

The transmission from 3:13 to 3:14 resembles the whole plot of this brilliant movie.

@alfie9876 LSD is actually non toxic and is almost impossible to overdose on. From what you are describing it sounds like it could have been BZ, a highly toxic very long lasting hallucinogenic dissociative which the US army has been known to experiment with. This would explain the deaths, illness, and the hallucinations.

for those of you who liked Twilight i'll type slowly . . . .

I saw this when it was released in 1990 since then i've bought the video, then dvd and finally on blu ray during the last 20 years... in my humble opinion its the most perfectly created piece of film i've ever seen haunting, visceral,entire cast superb and actually makes you think... reckon i could count on one hand the number of movies that are anywhere near as good as this (few notable exceptions Leon, The last Supper etc)

Looks like Monsanto doing chemical experiments in the field.

@tacticalboi I would have never heard of it if I wasn't a fan of Silent Hill. :D It's a good thing I am. I would have missed out on a great movie.

Here it is! And the truth comes out.....

Pont-Saint-Esprit poisoning: Did the CIA spread LSD?

Nearly 60 years ago, a French town was hit by a sudden outbreak of hallucinations, which left five people dead and many seriously ill. For years it was blamed on bread contaminated with a psychedelic fungus - but that theory is now being challenged.

Google it I can't post link
