Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas tells the tale of journalist Hunter S Thompson and his ‘˜attorney’™, the Samoan, driving to Las Vegas to find the dark side of the American dream.Roaring down the desert highway from Los Angeles, they realise there’™s only one way to go about such a perilous task: getting very, very twisted. Armed with a drug arsenal of stupendous proportions, the duo engage in a manic, surreal tour of the sleaze capital of the world. Their perilous, chemically-enhance confrontations with casino operators, police officers and assorted Middle Americans have a hallucinatory humour and nightmare terror. Riotously funny, daringly original and dead serious at its core, Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas is a classic statement on the collapsed dream of the American Sixties.
