I didn’t like Trainspotting at all. To me it looked like they were trying to make heroin cool. Half Baked works cause you can make a funny movie about pot. You can’t joke around with heroin. At least I don’t think so. I don’t even like the scene in Pulp where Travolta shoots up then he’s shown in the car lookin’ cool. But Travolta dies so it kind of levels out. Requiem was great, it really showed you what heroin addiction is like without trying to make it look cool or funny. I dunno, I just think heroin is much too serious a thing to take lightly.
But I will second that Fear and Loathing is one of the best drug movies out there.
