Released: 2004
a guy loses pretty much everything in his life an extremely short span and ends up hooked on... everything, pretty much. it's a good portrayal of how drug addiction can go really bad really quickly, although i think often came off a bit extreme. of course, you can't make a drug movie without those wannabe "requiem for a dream" sequences, can you? i liked the story, i liked the acting, i liked the dialogue, i like how when the guy lets his appearance go, he looks almost exactly like frank zappa... my only real complaint (and it's minor) is that it was very obviously shot with a low budget, and it sometimes comes off as kinda student film-ish .. that's ok, though. not the most uplifiting thing i've ever seen, that's for sure. i dug it. 6.5/10.
