If you're a fan of offbeat comedies and rock ‘n' roll, then “Free LSD” is the film you need to put on your watchlist this summer. Directed by OFF!'s frontman Dimitri Coats, making his feature directorial debut, this wacky sci-fi adventure dives headfirst into the multiverse with a punk rock twist.
The film centers around Keith, played by the legendary Keith Morris, who also fronts the band OFF!. Keith is an elderly sex shop owner who falls for a younger woman, sparking a chain of events that leads him to an experimental erectile dysfunction doctor. This isn't just any ordinary treatment; it opens the door to an alternate reality where Keith's band, OFF!, becomes the target of an advanced AI species determined to stop their music from awakening human consciousness.
