The movie is great; a classic example of a 70's paranoid conspiracy thriller with the added fun of science fiction and horror elements. The DVD also comes with a satiric short called The Ringer that is arguably better than the movie itself!

Blue Sunshine isn’t very psychedelic for a movie

Blue Sunshine isn’t very psychedelic for a movie about people going crazy on LSD. It’s not likely to blow any minds, and the horror is basic, at best.

BLUE SUNSHINE is a cult oddity I'd heard

BLUE SUNSHINE is a cult oddity I'd heard about for years but never watched. I'd seen the trailer, which featured LSD experiments, cults, 70s swinger parties, disco clubs, corrupt politicians, and, most notably, seemingly ordinary men and women revealing shaved heads before killing everyone around them. Zalman King plays the main character, whose friend group experiences a series of murders, which he begins to investigate. I expected the film to be far more trippy and surreal, but it unfolds in a very conventional manner. It does have a few stylish moments here and there, but I was hoping for something more along the lines of Panos Cosmatos' MANDY when it plays out more like a TV mystery of the week. For a story about seemingly ordinary moms, dads, office workers, etc., losing their hair and suddenly becoming psychotic killers, you'd expect it to be a completely bonkers film. Outside of a few moments, I might as well have been watching an episode of KOLCHAK, which isn't a bad thing, but I was expecting THE VISITOR or THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH. That the film never really cuts loose is the film's major weakness. The other main deficit is Zalman King as the lead actor, who is terrible. He's wooden and never believable. He very nearly ruins the film, but interestingly, in real life, King left acting and would go on to produce the popular mainstream softcore films 9 1/2 WEEKS, TWO MOON JUNCTION, WILD ORCHID, and THE RED SHOE DIARIES. I will give the film credit that when the killers strike, BLUE SUNSHINE comes to life for a short time, and the film's ending almost lives up to being the bonkers film I was expecting, featuring a final showdown in a discotheque, which also happens to be locked at a mall, which is also pretty hilarious. Not for all tastes, to say the least, and I realize I complained more about the film than complimented it, but I did enjoy it and will rewatch it at some point. It's definitely worth checking out for cult aficionados.
