On this Freebie Friday, we give away two tickets to Cinemania: Altered States at FilmBar on Saturday, August 19th at 10pm!

More from FilmBar about Altered States:

Respected scientist and psychology professor Edward Jessup (William Hurt) decides to combine his experiments in sensory deprivation tanks with powerful hallucinogenic drugs, convinced that it may help him unlock different states of consciousness. The experiments are a success at first, but as Jessup continues his work, he begins to experience altered mental and also physical states. As he spends more time in sensory deprivation, his grip on reality begins to slip away. 

To enter our Freebie Friday giveaway, tell us in our comment section about your favorite cult-classic that you’d like to see on the big screen. We will select a winner using random.org. Winners will be notified on Saturday, August 19th by e-mail. Comments are moderated and may take some time to appear. Please do not resubmit your comments — one is plenty.
