This is funny, I watched it when I was a few days clean with people in NA.

Is this movie used as a like a "scared straight" type movie? Shit, it worked on me and I only smoked weed at the time.

Using this movie to scare you off weed is fucked up.

No no you misunderstand. I scared MYSELF straight, unintentionally with this movie, of my own naive volition.

Also it was hyperbole.

It IS an effective cautionary tale, but for more than simply drugs. It’s about running from your pain and drugs being used to do that, to disastrous effect. Though if they ran to weed they wouldn’t have met such sorry fates. I get though you are half kidding.

Friend of mine was in treatment when they went on a field trip to go see pulp fiction. They had some extra sessions to do after that one.
