Gaspar Noe’s “Enter The Void,” his first feature length film since the highly controversial “Irreversible,” is one of the craziest head trip cinematic experiences I have ever sat through. A hallucinogenic kaleidoscope of colors, some of which looked like they were taken from Dario Argento’s “Suspiria,” it’s a surreal out of body experience and the kind you would not see today in American cinema today. In a time of soulless remakes and films that shamelessly manipulate our emotions, “Enter The Void” is a one of kind motion picture that breaks boundaries to create something unlike anything we have seen before. Like Gaspar’s previous films, it is destined to have sharply polarized reactions. Some will admire it if not love it, and others will find it excruciating to sit through. For myself, I was mesmerized from beginning to end, thankful that I got to take in something not bound by your typical Hollywood formulaic screenplay.
