I found this old video of Crispin Glover who played the dad on "Back to the Future" having a bad acid trip on David Letterman. I remember watching it live and feeling very uncomfortable. opcorn

Oh my GOD! That was so funny! I couldn't tell if that was a real trip or if he was acting. The guy is so wierd either way.

 

[err0r]

Haha.. funny to watch him be all paranoid when people from the crowd would talk. He was off in his own little world there, insane to the rest of the world. It can be fun, but, not on a talk show. Stupid move on his part.

WTF Letterman had that much hair a year ago? But how do we know he was on acid? Did he admit it?

 

[redcbrla]

David Letterman is awesome. And that dude is seriously messed up!

 

[kazlab67]

That video is actually from right after the movie came out...early eighties...I think the date is from when it was posted...not sure on that...and not sure how they knew it was acid...maybe he did an interview or something afterward...if you've been around it, you know the symptoms...

 

[Rascus]

That was funny

 

[TJT]

Oh man that was uncomfortable to watch for some reason...

 

[ServoR6]

I remember seeing that live also. Quite hilarious!

 

[hozhead]

Damn he had a lot of hair.


I really liked him in 'Willard' - PERFECT casting.

Never seen this clip before but it reminds me of Andy Kauffman's episode on his show.

True but I don't believe he'd be able to hide that during the filming of two movies.

 

[cefiro]

Wow, never seen that one before. Very funny, love how letterman reacts to him!

Marty McFly maybe? He was the dad when it was the "present" time, 1985.

That's horrible. I imagine he's probably dead now, or missing a couple thousand brain cells.
