Just picked up this flick, didn't really know what to expect, but heard good reviews..

This movie ing scared me straight, very graphic and shows the harsh realities, as well as the ups and downs of the addict. Just living until their next hit, doing whatever it takes, and eventually suffering the harsh consequences, the delivery and execution was almost flawless..

yes, great film.

It's amazing how the downfalls of the protagonists parallel each other.

I don't think it is the least bit frightening though...

"scared me straight" not in the sense that it was frightening, but in the sense that it very graphically showed what can happen if you lead to a life of drugs.

rofl, good point.. you must be really addicted though when you can't stop shooting up after your arm is getting infected that much..

What was the name of the song playing during the credits? (The classical type symphony one, it was played in the movie as well) I want to d/l it, but don't know the name..
