And so the month long celebration of Psych-Out has ended. I hope that you have enjoyed this long look at this Richard Rush film with many rare images from it (all restored).

By spreading my love for this film, much like the love being spread in this image with Jenny Davis getting a random gift from a stranger, I hope that you put this film in your to be watched que and/or spread the word to get others to check it out.

Ending on this image, which is my favorite from the film, is a perfect note to go out on… not to say I’ll never come across any other original images from this film (34 posted and counting).

Thanks to all that followed along and helped get the word out!

SPOILER: Purely for fans that have already seen Psych-Out! This image marks the moment of truth in the film. I really like how Laszlo Kovacs shot and framed this stunt sequence , especially playing off the many natural light sources in it, and as well how they pulled off the overall complexity with it while giving it a very palpable real world edge as if the moment truly was unfolding right before our eyes and peril lurking in every frame.
