Wow!

If you saw a Waking Life and dug that movie, and also enjoy scifi - you should immediately see this movie called "A Scanner Darkly". I finally got a chance to see the movie (difficult, because almost no movie theatres in Alabama showed it).

Basically, it is about an agent (Keanu Reeves) who is investigating a drug called Substance D. This drug causes schizophrenia-like symptoms and is very addictive. He has a weird suit, that prevents people and scanners from detecting who he really is - as does all the people at his agency. The movie was filmed with the roto-scoping technique of A Waking Life, where the film is turned into a cartoon via computer tech.

Really, this movie blew my mind - now I really want to read the Phillip K. Dick book that this was based from.
