''Fantastic Planet'' (French title: ''La Planète Sauvage'') is a 1973 Czech/French film about... [[TrueArtIsIncomprehensible various things]], and it's far too trippy and eccentric to do justice here. Basically, set on the homeworld of the Traags (or Draags), where humans--known as Oms--exist as both a population of troublesome vermin and also as pets. The film follows one of these pets from his captivity to later living among wild humans. Later still, things get [[TrippyFinaleSyndrome even stranger]], if that's possible. Let's just say that it involves a ritualised engagement in intergalactic out-of-body experiences, symbolically and probably literally a reference to both drugs and sex, which is threatened by an act of terrorism. All of which still doesn't make it sound half as surreal as the film itself.

Along the way, other stuff happens that you never really understand. It's almost indescribable, but just think ''Manga/NausicaaOfTheValleyOfTheWind'' [[XMeetsY meets]] ''Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey'' [[ThisIsYourPremiseOnDrugs on mescaline]], and you pretty much have it.

!! ''Fantastic Planet'' contains examples of:

* AlienSky: Typically brownish coloured.

* DisneyAcidSequence: The film.

* EarthAllAlong: [[spoiler: After the Draags leave, humans are left to populate the Fantastic Planet, which turns out to be the third planet from Sol.]]

* GRatedDrug: When the Oms eat the fruit in the desert and start to glow, and also the Draag 'meditation'. Or that thing they do where their bodies transform while sitting around. Some have suggested the name 'Draag' itself may come from drugs. Look, half the movie, okay?

* HumansThroughAlienEyes: How the Draags percieve us and our degree of intelligence is pretty important to the plot, such as it is.

!!Provides examples of the following tropes:

* ToxicGas: Used by the Draags to exterminate the Oms.

* SceneryPorn: The animators take great pride in their bizarre, ''KrazyKat''-esque desertscapes.

* AliensSpeakingEnglish: Well, French in the original, and they still use French words as the basis of naming a human in the English.

* DisneyAcidSequence: the film.

* EverybodyHasLotsOfSex: Although strangely. The Om have a lit-up orgy (tastefully obscured), and the less said about the Draag sex, the better.
