Mulholland Dr. tends to leave me dazed and confused, coated in paranoia and pining for some munchies.

After getting out of the theater from seeing Alex Proyas' 1998 film Dark City I thought that all of the buildings around me were moving.

2001: A Space Odyssey
Particularly the last 20 minutes or so, when Bowman goes through the star gate.
I always find myself slackjawed and practically drooling by the end.
I've heard that people used to get high and go see the movie, but I don't think it needs any help:p

Oh that's easy:
Pink Floyd: Live at Pompeii
The combination of trippy music, innovative camera shots, fast editing, and ancient Pompeiian relics, and celestial imagery means this film could give anyone a buzz. That shot of Roger Waters hitting the gong is spine-tingling.

I always feel a bit perturbed when I watch Requiem for a Dream (2000).
I was very overwhelmed the first time I watched Requiem. Not knowing anything about the film, just the trusting words of my friend who said to me, "Dude! You gotta see this movie!"
One Saturday night, my friend who told me about the movie, brought it over to my other friend's house and watched it down in his basement late afternoon. Throughout the film I felt very anxious and despondent for the characters in the film. After the climactic quick cut montage of everything going to shit and turn of events that worsen with every frame, I felt as if I was on some sort of drug.
I have revered Requiem for a Dream ever since my stoner 17 year old self saw it for the first time. With the addition of Clint Mansell's elegiac score and Aronofsky's choatic use of editing that puts your head in a whirling tornado. This movie is the anti-drug. If I was a high school Health teacher and did a week of drug awareness, this is the film that I would show them.
