Lights, Camera, Cannabis!

Hey there, fellow film fanatics and cannabis enthusiasts! 

Your go-to cannabis influencers are back, and this time we're taking movie marathons and viewing parties to a whole new level.

How, you ask? With the magic of cannabis, of course!

The Blockbuster Effect: Why Cannabis and Cinema Go Hand in Hand

Before we dive into product recommendations, let's explore why cannabis and cinema make such a dynamic duo.

A study published in the Journal of Psychoactive Drugs suggests that cannabis can amplify sensory experiences, making colors more vibrant, sounds more resonant, and narratives even more enthralling.

In other words, the right strain can transform your movie marathon into a cinematic odyssey.

Star-Studded Strains for your Movie Marathon

Finding the right strain is like casting the perfect actor – it can make all the difference.

Here are a few of California's nominations for the category:

Pineapple Express

When you're in for a long-haul of movie viewing, you want a strain that won't put you to sleep.

The sativa-dominant hybrid Pineapple Express, from G13 Labs, offers a long-lasting, energetic high that's perfect for an all-nighter.

Poochie’s Papaya

For the Rom-Com swooners, this fruity and floral powerhouse provides subtle mood boosts and a quick rush of gleeful energy to keep those spirits up before they fade into purely blissful relaxation and light sedation.

The aroma is sour fruit, sweet citrus, and tropical mango against a kush background.

This strain can treat nausea, pain, fatigue, and mild depression, making it the go-to choice for euphoric story immersion.

Biscotti

For those intense, edge-of-your-seat thrillers, you might want a strain that keeps you relaxed but engaged.

Biscotti, an indica-dominant strain from Connected Cannabis Co., provides a calming high that won't have you dozing off during the climax.

Catfish

Catfish by Teds Budz & Cream City is a fruity, creamy gelato cross with a gassy aroma and star-quality terpenes. Visually, the green, purple and orange leaves and trichomes appear to be straight off the silver screen, and the taste exudes strawberry cheesecake.
