Case Study: LSD is a 1969 anti-drug documentary film produced by Lockheed Corporation. It is one of four anti-drug "case study" shorts produced by Lockheed.[1] Featuring a scene with a hallucinated talking hot dog, it has been described as "backed by strange psychedelic visuals and free of preaching and pat conclusions",[2] "comically exaggerated",[1] "unintentionally funny"[3] "This Is Your Wiener On Drugs" (referencing the 1980s Partnership for a Drug-Free America This Is Your Brain on Drugs campaign),[4] and sarcastically credited for "kickstarting the vegetarian craze".[5]

The short is part of Fantoma Films' The Educational Archives ephemeral film DVD series in the Sex & Drugs collection.[2]
