But Bruce Willis doesn't know he is dead so he is "hallucinating" that he is alive?

How about Un Chien Andalou, one of Dali & Luis Bu๑uel's collaborations.

It's totally surrealist in nature, but may as well be a hallucination. A definite perceptive hallucination for the viewers, that is.

N' no it's definitely not for the queasiest of stomachs. It's very bizarre, but it's got two significant names behind it. Bu๑uel is just huge to cinematography.

Unhappy

The one in "Trainspotting" where Mark is locked in his room to detox-
He's hallucinating the baby crawling on the ceiling.
I can't watch that part.




edit: wrong movie title -

-Midnight Cowboy
-Killing Zoe
-Beavis and Butthead Do America, haha (oh, I mean "huh huh") Rob Zombie animated that hallucination scene

And it could be interpreted that the paperboy in Better Off Dead ("I want my two dollars!") is a reoccuring hallucination.

Hahaha, yeah Better off Dead is one of my favorites!

I'm pretty sure there's a hallucination scene in Midnight Cowboy with Dustin Hoffman when he's in the club and takes those drugs (I can't remember what, I think it was pills?). I haven't seen it in a long time though, so I could be wrong.

I have not seen any of these recently so beware... a lot of them are probably just trippy, not really hallucinatory:

Trainspotting
The Trip
Easy Rider
Altered States
American Psycho (if you don't think he did it)

I don't know about Midnight Cowboy... I always viewed that as straightforward portrayal of Ratso's experience, being all feverish and ailing in that weird environment, not that it was a hallucination-- it seemed to me pretty accurate as far as what that would be like for him, not exciting or mystifying but aggravating and just like a big headache. But I haven't seen that in a long while either!

Are there hallucinations in Jesus' Son? Thinking of other drug-themed movies put that in mind, I really loved that one... Billy Crudup!
