Plot Summary
Meth explores the rising wave of crystal methamphetamine use within the gay population. Through the reflections of a dozen gay men, we learn of the drug's allure, its promise, and why its popularity is soaring. Some of the men in the film are current users, and they share their life with us while under the constant influence of "Tina." Other interviewees are former denizens of "Tina World," who have managed to crawl back from the depths to which their addictions brought them. Throughout, Meth is an unflinching look at the devastating effects of addiction to this very serious drug.
Customer Reviews
Silence = Meth = Death
iTunes did a HUGE service for anyone contemplating, doing, or dealing with someone doing meth by making this available for $1.
iTunes needs to do a BIGGER favor an, under the guise of "Public Service Announcement", they need to make this documentary free.
I lived in Miami for 11 years, never saw the stuff personally, but saw the results. I was on the outside. "Oh. He's a drinker." I swore early on in my life I would never inject a drug, and I never have. Sure, I've had my moments as a pothead, but I'm a 50 y/o, gay white male who can proudly say I'm HIV negative.
Was it an accident that I turned up negative or just a throw of the dice? Probably the latter.
But I never got involved with meth, and not only am I grateful, but this documentary has underscored WHY I'm happy.
I'll take a boring, outside the A-list, mediocre (to others) life any day, over this mess.
Thank you, iTunes.
Now: make it free. At least for a week or so. You would be doing a BIG public service.
And God knows you can afford to make it free, for a short period.
Thanks for making it a buck. File under HORROR MOVIE.
Brilliant. Harsh. Scathing. Sensitive, and all too real.
Just Okay
The audio is not synched properly, so it is very annoying to watch. As far as substance goes, once you have seen 15 min of the film you have seen it all. The subjects in the film are very honest and open but I didn't ever feel connected to them. Overall it's just okay.
Nice
This movie makes me wanna pack a bowel and tweek out!
