Blank-faced bug killer Bill Lee and his dead-eyed wife, Joan, like to get high on Bill's pest poisons while lounging with Beat poet pals. After meeting the devilish Dr. Benway, Bill gets a drug made from a centipede. Upon indulging, he accidentally kills Joan, takes orders from his typewriter-turned-cockroach, ends up in a constantly mutating Mediterranean city and learns that his hip friends have published his work -- which he doesn't remember writing.

A lot of assholes in this film. Shitty outlook on life. This ass talk has a certain... gut frequency that hits you right down there like you gotta go. A bubbly thick stagnant sound, a sound you can smell. https://boxd.it/2uj4zN

I watched this with a clear head and didn't get it, that's probably why.
