This is your typical 'tweaker' movie. Your dealer consumes so much of his supply that he loses sight of where he put it, he goes looking and in the process becomes more paranoid. Ross (played by Jason Schwartzman) gets hired as a driver for The Cook (played by Mickey Rourke). As the movie moves along, bump after bump is consumed. The more Ross does, and the longer he is awake, the more demonic and dark his trips become. At one point he is so out of his mind that he is convinced that he 'needs' to keep April tied to his bed his is apartment.
The filmography is similar to that of Requiem for a Dream in regards to the projected experience of getting high, differentiating mostly in it's more animated portrayal.
I would say this is a decent movie, I wouldn't tell you to go out and buy it, but it's worth a rental, or hell, just borrow it from a friend and save your money. Enjoy ;)
