\n Joaquin Phoenix has a warning for those planning to experience his latest film, Beau Is Afraid<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\n During an interview with Fandango<\/a><\/em>, published online Friday, the Joker<\/em> star advised people to not take mushrooms before going to see the Ari Aster-directed film.<\/p>\n

\n \u201cI was told from someone in college that there was this college thread amongst friends, a challenge they were going to take mushrooms and go see this movie,\u201d he explained.\u201d And I just wanted to make a public service announcement and say, do not take mushrooms and go see this fucking movie.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n He then jokingly added, \u201cBut if you do it, film yourself. But don\u2019t do it!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n The Her <\/em>actor did recommend filmgoers to see the film in IMAX if they can, because \u201cThat\u2019s the way to fucking see it!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n He recalled the first time he watched Beau Is Afraid<\/em> with an audience, saying, \u201cI was definitely squirming in my seat. First of all, I\u2019m just laughing about the entire fucking movie. There\u2019s a couple of sequences where I\u2019m just squirming \u2013 I mean, stuff that [Aster] did with the sound design, it was really great. It\u2019s such a rich world, and there\u2019s so many details to see in it. It is a hundred percent a movie that you feel. There\u2019s so many rich, complex theme<\/a>s in this film, but it\u2019s such a visceral experience to watch it. Then you leave, and when that feeling subsides, you start thinking about it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n Phoenix stars as Beau Wassermann, a paranoid man who confronts his darkest fears and embarks on an epic odyssey to get back home following his mother\u2019s sudden death, in the A24 film, which The Hollywood Reporter<\/em>\u00a0described in its review\u00a0as a \u201cpitch-dark existential horror comedy about an emotional wreck on a painfully conflicted journey home.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n Beau Is Afraid<\/em> is currently airing in theaters.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
