This cool, little movie (directed by Richard Rush of Stunt Man fame) stars Susan Strasberg (good actress; daughter of Lee); she hung out with all these cool nobodies (then) as a deaf chick on Haight_Ashbury streets looking for her older... Full review

I purchased this movie recently as one of those "MIDNITE MOVIES", that MGM has put out as a double feature on DVD. I absolutely love this movie. If you want to know what 1968 looked like, really looked like in... Full review
The Seeds cameo was too short

Most everything people have already said about this movie is how I think about it, too. However, I would like to say for the Seeds fans out there that might try to see the film so they can see the... Full review
A lot of blissed-out fun

As I was about two years old when this movie was shot, I missed the whole psychedelic/hippie/Sixties era/attitude/thing, except maybe the very tail end of it. So I was always curious about it. While I realize this is just a... Full review
Psych-Out is as much a skewed look at the world of hippies as much as it is a praise-full one- Clark knew that he couldn't show hippies as they really were, despite that he could get filming rights in Haight-Ashbury... Full review
Stupid, but VERY colorful and never dull

A 17 year old deaf mute (Susan Stasberg!?!) tries to find her brother (Bruce Dern) in 1968 San Franciscos Haight-Ashbury area. A musician (Jack Nicholson) and his friends try to help her.The plot is unbelievable from the word "go" and,... Full review
Classic psychedelic trash!

If you try and take 'Psych-Out' seriously you're making a big mistake. This is Haight-Ashbury presented by Dick Clark after all! But as 60s camp it's great fun, and dare I say it worth watching more than "real" head movies... Full review
Holy S**t

When I first read the synopsis for Psych-Out, I expected it to be incredibly stupid, but once I watched it I decided otherwise. This film provides a rare look into a time too offen reduced to nostalgic simplicities. A true... Full review

Entertainment Weekly
Scour better stores for the 1968 cult film Psych-Out, now scandalously out of print (it was formerly available on HBO; Video Oyster, 212-989-3300, might help you locate a copy). As a deaf girl (Susan Strasberg) searches the Haight for her deranged brother (Bruce Dern), she crashes with a sly guitarist played by Jack Nicholson. ... Full Review
