"DMT only lasts for six minutes, but it really seems like an eternity. It releases the same chemical your brain receives when you die. It's a little like dying would be the ultimate trip." Enter the Void is like 2001: A Space Odyssey but a nightmarish drug trip that escalates into the void of desolation. The camera floats around and above the characters, and we sometimes jump between the past and the present. Just imagine a ghost with a god eye. It’s shocking and depressing and doesn’t stop until the end. It’s an experience like no other - an experience I would never like to revisit. Either way, it is one of the best.

An often bleak story surrounded by bright visuals, "Enter the Void" is a slow moving, highly accessible art-film set inside a fitting underworld of sorts.

Visually striking but the narrative is pretty slow, despite the fact it delves into past, present and future. This is one strange trip, and not everyone will appreciate it, but if you're looking for something different, I can't think of anything to compare this one to.

Fantastic interpretation of The Tibetan Book of the Dead which sees a dead drug dealer encounter the afterlife, After his demise we see everything from his ghostly viewpoint. Cutting edge photography with a dollop of 60s underground cinema means that while the pace is slow (funereal?), the visual aesthetic ensures rapt attention. Not for everyone but a thrilling ride if you get on board this particular trip.
