panic at the needle parc
basketball diaries
london
menace to society, or whatever 90's blaxploitation movie they copied to make gta san andreas
rats on cocaine (not a movie, a cartoon on youtube, but its real badass so it makes my list)

fuck yeah, i like to be different !!!
 
1) Requiem for a Dream
2)Half Nelson
3)Grass (a good documentary)
4) Bully (doesn't make drugs the main subject but still deals with them)
5) Party Monster (this movie is funny, weird, and sad. I like it haha)

A movie I want to see is "Black Tar Heroin, The Dark End of the Street" It looks like a really well made documentary but I can't seem to be able to find it anywhere.

hehe, google black tar heroin dark end of street..OR on youtube :)


i think half baked, city of god, requiem for a dream (but i think how their pupils dilate after usin heroin was quite confusing the whole time.."are they coke fiends wtf?") , sugar hill, and trainspotting were all pretty cool movies
 
basketball diaries
pulp fiction
newjack city
train spotting
american gangster

Just read through the whole thread and was surprised no one was mentioning New Jack City. Guess its cuz we're older than the average BL. No one mentioned Cheech & Chong either.
 
I know its not a movie per se, but the best show ever on drugs has to be THE WIRE. No other program ever took on every aspect of drugs from users to street dealers to big dealers to importers to cops to politics to media to schools to the ports to recovery, etc........

My favorites:

The Wire (if eligible)
Up in Smoke - Cheech & Chong
Basketball Diaries
Pulp Fiction
New Jack City
Sugar Hill
Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas

Very hard not to include Scarface as its one of my favorite moviesbut it didn't look at the drug users as much as the ones on my list. Just watched Dazed & Confused again last night. Not a top pick but a funny movie about "innocent" drug/alchol use in high school.
 
Requiem For a Dream

Spun

Paid In Full

Drugstore Cowboy

Panic In Needle Park.
 
Guys, come on..

Pusher I, II, III
Casino
Black Tar Heroin: The Dark End of the Street
etc

Most everything else has already been repeated several times. I think everyone should try these films. I highly doubt you will be disappointed in any of them.
 
The Man with the Golden Arm (Frank Sinatra) old school shit,
Spun
Buffalo Soldiers
Requiem for a Dream
Gridlockd (I cant believe no one mentioned this, come on junkies, get on the ball)
American Gangster

Honorable Mentions: Traffic, Trainspotting

I agree with the repeats, try to come up with some original shit...
 
^ just watched gridlock'd a couple days ago w/ my mom..im always missing dope ass movies that just sit around the house .
 
Another Honorable Mention is Clockers, which is a classic, Strike is the shit in that movie...
 
Oh yeah, I hate to keep adding, but I love movies, Ive watched so many... but the French Connection is a good old school flick.... I still would recommend The Man with the Golden Arm for anyone whose into shooting dope...
 
while on drugs- Reqiem for a dream and Fear and Loathing in LV
sober- scarface and blow
 
Nothing comes close to Trainspotting for me.

1) Trainspotting
2) Candy
3) Christiane F. (German)
4) Drugstore Cowboy
5) Traffic
6) Little Fish
7) Rush
8) The Salton Sea
9) Requiem for a Dream
10) Blow
11) Human Traffic
12) The Basketball Diaries

2:Requiem for a dream
3: Bad lieutenant
4:Love and a .45

I get so lost when i watch these movies, especially when I am actually on the drug that they are doing in the movie. But that is only natural.
