From 1973, an ABC-made TV Movie based on Go Ask Alice, that time-honoured playground-contraband paperback shocker ostensibly relating the Jefferson Airplane-refracted diarised recollections of a normal schoolgirl who gave into temptation and smoked that crazy acid, leading her down a dark path towards casual sex and seeing a table from lots of different angles at once. Seemingly caught somewhere between Last House On The Left and The Trip, it’s bursting to hallucinatory overload with esoteric confectionary you only ever saw in Marvel Comics adverts, Top Of The Pops album-like re-recordings of the psychedelic hits of yesteryear, overuse of coloured tinting to indicate far-out hallucinatory ‘drug trip’ sequences, and – perhaps most acid-ravaged of all – a ‘Special Appearance’ by William Shatner. Logic and proportion have indeed fallen smartly dead!
