This Week in Movies You Missed: What would happen if you crossed the Harold and Kumar movies with David Cronenberg? Or Men in Black with a stoner’s shaggy-dog story?
What You Missed
David Wong (Chase Williamson, pictured) relates his unlikely adventures to a journalist (Paul Giamatti). It all started (or did it?) when his friend, John (Rob Mayes), got dosed with a drug called “soy sauce” at a show. Suddenly John found himself moving through time and space, accessing other dimensions and knowledge he wasn’t supposed to have — and then he died. Or did he?
The sauced experiences of John and David (a pseudonym, he hastens to point out) will lead to their becoming “spiritualist exorcists” who routinely encounter interdimensional portals in shopping malls, giant spiders, ghosts, aliens, sentient viruses and slugs that try to burrow inside you.
When you’re connected to the heartbeat of the universe (or something like that), nothing ever is what it seems.
