After premiering at the 2023 Slamdance Film Festival, punk rock supergroup OFF! revealed the trailer for ‘Free LSD’, the science fiction comedy film which promotes the group’s farewell album with the same name (which debuted at #20 on the Billboard Album Sales Chart). The film was written and directed by OFF!’s guitarist Dimitri Coats.
Starring the film are Jack Black (School of Rock, High Fidelity), James Duval (Independence Day, The Doom Generation), comedian Dana Gould (The Simpsons), Barry Del Sherman(American Beauty, There Will Be Blood), Chelsea Debo (Bull, Dead Wrong), and Chloe Dykstra (Spider-Man 2, Diminuendo).
Release Date
Directed by Dimitri Coats, ‘Free LSD’ opens in select theaters starting July 17, 2024. The film will also release on VOD August 9, 2024.
Synopsis
OFF!’s frontman Keith Morris stars as Keith, an elderly sex shop owner, falls for a younger woman who visits his store looking for a gift. When their relationship turns physical, Keith’s failure to perform leads him to a strange erectile dysfunction doctor who offers hope in the form of an experimental drug. The experience gives Keith much more than renewed manhood. It also provides a glimpse into a parallel universe where he is not only the singer of the band OFF!, but also the target of an advanced AI species that will stop at nothing to prevent the group from making a new album, which holds the key to an awakening of human consciousness.
