Ready to get so high, it’s scary?

One of my favorite films to screen at Fantastic Fest in Austin, TX last September was The Wave, a psychedelic mind-fuck starring Justin Long. The film is now playing in select theaters and VOD. The Blu-ray is releasing February 11th. Give the trailer a spin embedded at the top of the article and read the synopsis below.

Synopsis:
Frank (Justin Long), an opportunistic insurance lawyer, thinks he’s in for the time of his life when he goes out on the town to celebrate an upcoming promotion with his co-worker, Jeff. But their night takes a turn for the bizarre when Frank is dosed with a hallucinogen that completely alters his perception of the world, taking him on a psychedelic quest through board meetings, nightclubs, shootouts, and alternate dimensions. As Frank ping-pongs between reality and fantasy, he finds himself on a mission to find a missing girl, himself… and his wallet.

The Wave is directed by Gille Klabin from a screenplay penned by Carl W. Lucas; in addition to Long, the film stars Donald Faison, Tommy Flanagan, and Katia Winter.
