Plot
Combining his characteristic savage humour with hard-talking drama, Irvine Welsh adapts three of his short stories into one powerful, explicit and savagely funny film. The Acid House reaches into the hearts and minds of the "chemical generation" and delves into the dark, hidden corners of the human psyche. Get ready to take the trip! In 'The Granton Star Cause' a lad living at home with his parents, who has it all (beautiful girlfriend, star of the local football team) suddenly meets God. In 'A Soft Touch' Johnny is a guy who is easily manipulated... what will he do when he comes up against his totally psychotic neighbour? In 'The Acid House' a youth with a passion for raves and drugs takes a trip with a difference.
