Harry loves his mom Sara. Especially when he’s pawning her tv set to fund his drug habits. He’s also in love with Marion, fellow junkie and the disconnected daughter of a wealthy businessman.
Marion’s allowance from her father is controlled by a therapist, whom she fucks when desperate for cash. Harry meanwhile has grand plans of being a successful seller with buddy Tyrone, whose connections seem promising.
Sara sits at home alone most of the time, addicted to a game show that glorifies winners and weight-loss. When she receives an invitation to be a part of the show, she gets obsessed with losing weight to fit into her favorite red dress.
And then life spirals for all four of them, with the spiral of Harry’s world running parallel to his mother’s more socially acceptable addiction.

Cum a putut Connelly sa faca acest film?? Ori ii place-si atunci are o problema mareee, ori nu avea BANI !!!
Wow, that was a ride. This movie is disturbing in a special kind of way you don’t come across often. It gave me a feeling of dread that morphs into an envy of self-improvement and introspection.
It really highlights how humans cope with the vision of a dream not being aligned with your current actions and path of life. The only way to give ourself a better future is to take action and stop avoiding temporary suffering with instant gratification.
So Harry lost his arm, Sara lost her mind, Tyrone lost his freedom, and it could be that Marion was about to lose her life. They all lost their independence and ‘gained’ sorrow. What a shit-storm. I thought this was the movie where Jennifer Connelly had cum splattered all over her face!? Or was this actually a cut version after-all?? Too bad, I was getting ready to snap my carrot during the ‘animal’ party. Also too damned bad that they didn’t at least have a cock in the same frame as her STUNNING face. I woulda choked my chicken with that forced fantasy. But nope.
i come to this site for disturbing and gross out movies and this isnt that at all. it is the first movie that has ever made me feel hopeless, truly this movie is just gut wrenching and really shows how awful drug abuse it, from sex work, hospitals, insanity, prison and amputation.
🙁 me encanta esta peli..pero no hay subtitulos en español
Sadly such movies will never be made .. woke cinema ruined everything. Today no one can have courage to make movies like this.
Damn…. You guys really have a good selection of movie on here. And outstanding choices. Well done! There are many levels of the effed-up realm, and the movie definitely falls in the more cerebral zone. And that’s pretty much where I linger.
wasn’t high enough for this tragic pile of shit
I do like this movie, but I have to pass the parts when junkies doing drugs…. saying this I can appreciate the story and I love the music!
CAN”T BLAME ANYONE IF THIS IS INDEED THE BEST EUM IN THIS WEBSITE SO FAR. 5/5!!!!!
It wasn’t as I expected, pretty delusional. Still good, but not as great as I wanted to be.
An emotionally manipulative DARE psa with the depth of a puddle. Darren Aronofsky can come up with some cool shots or scenes but its all in service of masterbatory misery porn with nothing to say other than “drugs bad, diet culture bad”.
shut up
Most overrated garbage of all time. A couple of camera tricks to get the newborns excited. It’s almost as overpretentious as inception.
Such a great movie. If you ever want to do hard drugs, watch this first. Sobering up people since the year 2000. Never understood how people can do heroin. I only messed with psychedelics and cannabis. Coke seemed too crazy, and heroin looks gross. I couldn’t mess with needles anyway. Those uppers for the mom were way too many. Im not sure what was scarier. That scene of Marion hugging the bag of heroin after going to that insane party was intense. She gave everything up for that bag.
and i thought SPUN was realistic holy shit
Would like to recommend adding Cookers (2001)
Ran into it by accident some years ago and was thoroughly surprised. I’ve never seen this movie mentioned anywhere.
Masterpiece.
had the dumb idea to toke every time they shot up and im still coming down as im writing this so take this lightly. been a long ass time since ive felt genuinely scared from a movie, damn did this leave me gutted. our high school had somewhat of a heroin problem for a while, everyone knew someone in some way affected by it, and watching this knowing most of it can happen and is happening somewhere in real life you cant help but feel absolutely helpless. its so easy to just say “dont do drugs” but far trickier to help past that point, which is why i’m glad the movie began after abstinence ceases to be a possibility. there was very little any individual could have done to prevent what happened, the blame lies on the system, with each participant holding eachothers hands behind their backs. only proper drug reform can maybe get us out of this hell. great movie 9/10 expected it to be trippier but thats ok thank you EUM
Who tf downvoting all the positive comments?
Crazy as fuck
A flim which make people reflect. One of the best awareness flim i have seen.
um dos meus favoritos . o drama contido nele é perfeito
It ain’t all about the size of the boat, It’s the motion in the ocean.
How did it take me until 2021 to watch this? One of the best movies I have ever seen!
Best choice to watch while in quarantine
Good movie ,and the background music its a classic for sure
This will not make me popular, but I think this movie is overrated. Of course, it is well-made, the soundtrack by Clint Mansell is wonderful, and Ellen Burstyn’s acting is just incredible. But, in the end, it is just a somewhat mediocre tearjerker: a film that shows in a trivial way how drug addiction may ruin lives. The sad thing in this movie, of course, is the poor old lady who merely wanted something that would make losing weight a little easier for her, and became addicted because of an ‘unethical’ doctor. This seems to me, but I really do not know, a problem typical to the US, associated with that country’s health care system. But, I do not feel sorry for the two young boys. They knew perfectly well what they were getting into. The girl is a somewhat different matter: it is sad, and disgusting, that there are men out there who feel pleasure in sexually harassing women. (To clarify my reaction further: long ago, when I was a student, we shared an apartment building with a drugs dealer. On a daily basis, I saw kids of my age visit this dealer, many of them like zombies, empty eyes and with no voice left. Since that time, marihuana was enough for me. And I also know very well that it is easy to become addicted, I have had to fight alcohol addiction all my life, and never won. But coming back to the movie: all of us have… Read more »
One of the greatest films of all times… It has all elements of a tragic story.
It feels like an episode of blackmirror
guess I’m gonna go cry now. If you ever feel like trying heroin – watch this movie first.
oh okay damn
This movie stuck with me longer and hit harder than any movie I’ve seen. The score is terrifying as has already been said, and the bad outcomes are very realistic.
sickeningly real
Sweetness?
A classic ?
how depressing
If you’re ever feeling too happy and feel like you need to add some misery to make your life complete, this one is a masterpiece.
You know, I’ve gotta say, I find the background music in this move extremely haunting. Also, if you’ve ever wondered where Boz Skag got his name… lol
ADMIN: Thanks again for loading this one. I also learned a thing or two about “Philosophy of the Knife” and “Laboratory of the Devil”…. like they’re one in the same.
one of the best movies ever made, Jennifer Connelly is one hot, H O T cunt x3
This is one of my favorites…. Thank you!!!
